gimp import pygtk error about nixpkgs HOT 4 CLOSED

pygtk does not create pth files, thx @shlevy and @NixOSn00b (on irc) for pointing it out and finding workarounds for now.

I can see pth files in pygtk now.
wrap it with PYTHONPATH set to ${pygtk}/lib/${python.libPrefix}/site-packages seem work.

@iyzsong: Great! Will you make a pull request of that?

I've just hit this issue installing and running gimp from nix on macOS Sierra. From nix I've installed gimp-2.8.20 and python-2.7.13. Is there another package I need?
