Pushed to master (4ff3787). Thanks.

python3Packages.spyder is not working due to python2.7 dependencies propagated into environment, I have yet to figure out what's going on.

If I am correct it fails because wheels are not supported by Spyder (will come with 3.0).
I guess we're just lucky it does work with 2.7.

We have the setuptools shim to inject setuptools before distutils. Our problem is different (python2.7 dependencies on python3 project):

$ nix-shell -A python3Packages.spyder --command "echo \$PYTHONPATH" -I /home/ielectric/dev

Found the issue, it's pylint propagated build input that propagated python2.7. Need to figure out how to solve this one properly.

[FRidh]

Simply put a callPackage pylint in python-packages.nix? That's what I did with spyder.

[FRidh]

That way it becomes available for all Python versions, which is what we want anyhow.

[domenkozar]

Exactly :) I just wonder how we can prevent a similar issue in future.
Probably hard to do without some linting.

Something in buildPythonPackage that asserts that (propagated) build inputs
(no need to go deeper) have the same ${python.pythonVersion} as
${python.pythonVersion}, with the latter being the python argument to the
current buildPythonPackage call.
