asdf-python and pacman

[johnhamelink]

Hey there,

I've been using this plugin since 2016 (!) and asdf is still by far my favourite version manager.

Since the start, I've had issues with asdf's python confusing applications which rely on the system python.

In my ~/.tool-versions, I have my python setup like so:

python system 3.8.2 2.7.17

I understand that this line will try the system python first, then try 3.8.2, then 2.7.17.

When I reshim python, then trigger my AUR package updates, I get the following error:

asdf reshim python && yay -Syu
< SNIP >

==> Starting package_python-aigpy()...
unknown command: python. Perhaps you have to reshim?
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package_python-aigpy().
    Aborting...
Error making: python-aigpy

Looking at the python-aigpy package, python is being called like so:

  depends=(
    'python2'
    'python2-requests'
    'python2-libconfigparser'
    'python2-colorama'
    'python2-mutagen'
    'python2-futures'
  )
  cd "${srcdir}/${_pkgname}-${pkgver}-2"
  python2 setup.py install --root="${pkgdir}/" --optimize=1 --skip-build
  install -Dm644 "${srcdir}/LICENSE" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/LICENSE"

which python2 points to /home/john/.asdf/shims/python2.

I'm not entirely sure where to go from here - how can I ensure that pacman installs packages with the system pythons?
