Subject: Re: [PATCH] gnu: Add python-tree-sitter.

Hello Nicholas,

I took a look at the package and it bundles the tree-sitter code and
compiles it from source code.  As tree-sitter is already packaged in
GNU Guix the setup.py script could be patched to instead build the
bindings and link with the system tree-sitter.

So the `origin' should contain a `snippet' to remove the bundled
code and on the build phases `setup.py' (and any other files) should
be patched to use the system tree-sitter.

Cheers,
