# - has the Python interpreter directly in that structure and not in bin/, as
#   rules_python's pip3_import interpreter_path requires a file target, and

#   in the root path of the external repository (which is populated with a
#   symlink tree from the nix derivation), so we can onlly directly reference
#   file in the root of a Nix derivation.
