Okay, I hope I understood correctly, attached is a patch with these updates (on top of the already applied originally package addition).

I noticed that autokey-shell had calls to ipython3 (or python3) that should have been substituted, so I did that with the added input for ipython3.

Added the comment about the tests and GI_TYPELIB_PATH. Note that this is there because otherwise the gtk pieces won't run as it needs the girepository (I think this is also the reason this is done in most cases?). I did add the comment you suggested so it is clear this is prefix in case there are other GI paths a user wants, and that the GUIX_PYTHONPATH wrapping is done by python-build-system already.

Thanks again!
John
