One comment but otherwise looks good.
I'll try run this with a PR with an existing project when I get a moment

Why is this removed?
Wouldn't we want to keep this with 3.9 based on setup.py?

[TomaSajt]

I removed it as it is only really useful if it's in the range of python versions provided by nixpkgs (3.9-3.13)

Also, this is not a python package, but a python app: it will only evaluated with the current python3Packages set.

[06kellyjac]

Thanks, good to know.

I have had a play with building gramps as a python package too for the gramps web stuff but it's not quite there yet.

Import worked fine.
Should probably have a release note item though

I'm not sure what release note item you're talking about, could you clarify?

From the PR template under "Things Done" above

25.05 Release Notes (or backporting 24.11 and 25.05 Release notes)

• (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
• (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
• (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module

Since this is a major version bump (5 -> 6) we should add a note in nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2505.section.md that people should backup first and outline any breaking changes
