I think that wrapping up ruby and python packages into rpms seems to

dubious benefit. These projects have their own package management systems

tempted to get out of the business of packaging these things and just let
people use the upstream language tools. What does Fedora users gain with "dnf
install rails" or "dnf install ipython" versus "gem install
rails" and "pip
install ipython"?
Not entirely on the topic but for pip we should for one recommend using twine
instead of pip:
