Unfortunately, for the remaining PEP517 holdouts, there's little pressure upstream for them to port to a proper build system yet, as while setuptools deprecated the `setup.py` entrypoint some time ago, there's no removal in sight yet, so the only pressing side is on Gentoo's where we want to cleanup distutils-r1's support for that. It was arguably a mistake to really have these packages use distutils-r1 in the first place. The obvious workaround for now is to invoke setup.py manually w/ python-single-r1, and punt the question until setuptools removal of the entrypoint looks closer (at which time, other distros will be putting pressure on upstreams too). Of course, if at the time of such a setuptools change, the package is still not fixed, then we'd have to remove it. (The same issues apply to bug #922160 which isn't fixed by this, but hopefully won't be an actual problem until that aforementioned removal in setuptools itself of the other bits.)
