Subject: ["PATCH core-updates" 0/1] Fix python package idle output
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2024 13:41:14 +0000

idle has been split from python and python2 packages to their own python:idle
and python2:idle outputs. Unfortunately however, the idlelib directory is not
installed properly to be picked up by GUIX_PYTHONPATH. I don't care much for
python idle, but is used by several good kid's boot about programming, so it's
probably better to have it working.

Please note that even then, python:idle requires pythonX:tk to be installed in
order to be able to run properly.
