The packages khal and vdirsyncer are meant to be used together. Khal is
a console calendar program and vdirsyncer synchronizes CalDAV data from
a remote server to the local filesystem so that khal can use it.
For some reason, the khal package is creating an
"EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT" (as "bin/.vdirsyncer-real") that wraps the
propagated vdirsyncer executable. This means that both the khal and
vdirsyncer packages contain the path "bin/vdirsyncer", which is
annoying. Thankfully, they both end up executing the real vdirsyncer.
Is this a common issue that we have a workaround for? I wonder if
we can fix this in our package, or if I should take it upstream?
I found this discussion on guix-devel relating to easy-install and path
collisions, although I'm not sure if it's relevant:

Hartmut's work on the python-build-system has fixed this bug. Thank you
Hartmut!
