I think we can define library and CLI program separately, since Python
libraries usually need to propagate some inputs, while CLI programs in
/bin and /sbin do not, as they are wrapped by the build system.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public python-xxx
(package
(name "python-xxx")
(propagated-inputs (list [...]))
[...]))
(define-public xxx
(package
(inherit python-xxx)
(name "xxx")
(propagated-inputs '())
(inputs (package-propagated-inputs python-xxx))
[...]))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Thanks
