package update: papis

Issue description

I was really excited to discover another option than mendeley/zotero: papis but couldn't install it on nixos-unstable bcause of the following error...

Steps to reproduce

@nico202 would it be possible to bump the package please ? seems like 0.6 is old (0.7.4 available)

https://github.com/dtzWill/nixpkgs/commits/nixos-dtz/pkgs/tools/misc/papis -- sorry for not sending upstream "yet", but might help even if a bit messy :).

Definitely was building previously, but am mid-rebuild so can't attest to it right this moment.

Hope it helps!

@dtzWill you knew I was having difficulties with zotero/mendeley and didn't share with me this little gem ? I thought we had a connection ! Thanks for the link, definitely appreciated. I am really eager to test the software but I have some more pressing bugs to attend to. Hoping the maintainer can jump in.

[dotlambda]

@teto Unrelated to this issue, but you could also have a look at pubs.

[teto]

@dotlambda thanks for the tip, I am definitely interested though just looking at screenshots, I am still more interested in papis. I really like mendeley apart from some things where plugins could have made it tons better. I think zotero is nice (FOSS, some paid developers, lots of functionalities) but I can't help disliking the UI that looks like typical FOSS and the tech stack (also it has some problems on nixos).
I as I already have a heavy terminal workflow, I can see myself using papis (or pubs) instead of zotero.

[dotlambda]

Regarding the dateparser test failures, there are scrapinghub/dateparser#489, scrapinghub/dateparser#490 and scrapinghub/dateparser#493.
We can build papis using python36 as long as these are not resolved.

[dotlambda]

Our issue tracking the dateparser test failures: #52766.

@dotlambda thanks for your commitment on this issue, I noticed you've been very active.
@dtzWill so I tried to merge changes from your branch but it got a bit out of hand so I tried to install from your branch but either I have a problem with click or with dateparser tests. What do you say we split the upstreaming load with I upstream filetype and you upstream libisbn (or vice-versa) ?
