On IRC, (the user who I think is) Alex said that they were able to build
beets with the attached patch.

All the patch does is invoke the tests with `nosetests -v` instead of
`python setup.py test`, making use of python2-nose. This is what is done
by Nixpkgs.

Is there anybody else who could not build beets before? Would you like
to test the patch?
