I tried building with glib-or-gtk-build-system instead of
gnu-build-system. It still didn't work if python-2 was a mere input, but
I wonder if glib-or-gtk-build-system should be used, regardless?

I wonder if 宋文武 has any thoughts about this issue?

Perhaps it's not a problem to propagate python-2 at the system level
(which is where I think GNOME tools would normally be)?

Maybe we should use a wrapper instead of propagating python-2?
