+python3-setuptools-scm-opt (setuptools-scm installed to /opt)
+
+setuptools_scm extracts Python package versions from git or hg
+metadata instead of declaring them as the version argument or in a SCM
+managed file.
+
+# Build your package with this version to fix errors like the following:
+ImportError: cannot import name '__version__' from ...
+
+NOTE:
+Installs to /opt/python$PYVER/site-packages
+
+Add the following before the python3 build commands in your
+Slackbuild to use this version over the stock one in 15.0:
+
+PYVER=$(python3 -c 'import sys; print("%d.%d" % sys.version_info[:2])')
+export PYTHONPATH=/opt/python$PYVER/site-packages
