beets is probably searching for 'fpcalc' in $PATH, instead of using a string
like /gnu/store/.../bin/fpcalc.  This can usually be resolved with substitute*,
to turn something like 'system("fpcalc --stuff")' into
'system("/gnu/store/.../bin/fpcalc --stuff")' (that's for C code, the python
equivalent might be a little different).

Greetings,
