There is a related bug for this:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=20765

You can search for that URL in python.scm to find workarounds.

I find myself adding the "--single-version-externally-managed" flag more
often than not and am willing to try changing python-build-system to use
pip, as discussed in that bug. But won't have time until a few weeks
from now, at least.

Thanks,
Marius
