The problem seems to be related to the version of pip used.  The one
bundled with our Python on master is:

$ guix environment --pure --ad-hoc python -- pip3 --version
pip 19.2.3 from
/gnu/store/pw65c67dmzr2m9wbkj5mskhm6ljk6xal-profile/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip
(python 3.8)

and

$ guix environment --pure --ad-hoc python -- python3 -c 'import pip._internal.index.package_finder'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named
'pip._internal.index.package_finder'; 'pip._internal.index' is not a
package

but

$ guix environment --pure --ad-hoc python python-pip -- pip3 --version
pip 20.2.4 from
/gnu/store/d75bwzbla5ybhs0mdw80qy94mawnhhsw-python-pip-20.2.4/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip
(python 3.8)

and

$ guix environment --pure --ad-hoc python python-pip -- python3 -c 'import pip._internal.index.package_finder'
$ echo $?
0

HTH!

Closing.

Python can not load all pip-related python modules when loaded from a
manifest file, yet seems to work fine when loaded 'directly' as part of
a `guix environment'-invocation.


Provided that we have a file in `hi.py':
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
import pip
print("halfwaypoint")
import pip._internal.index.package_finder
print("I made it!")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and a `manifest.scm' with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (gnu) (guix packages)
	     (gnu packages python)
	     (gnu packages python-xyz))

(packages->manifest (list python python-pip))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I can get the expected output by running:
`guix environment --pure --ad-hoc python python-pip -- python3 hi.py' =>
> halfwaypoint
> I made it!

Yet, when I run the following:
`guix environment --pure -m manifest.scm -- python3 hi.py' =>

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
halfwaypoint

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Why is there a difference in the first place? Shouldn't both approaches work?
