Oh, that's true, and it's actually installed as well, I think -- I totally
missed it at first because the python library must be hidden behind %files -n
python3-psautohint -f %{pyproject_files} and not explicitly listed in %files.

Anyway, maybe in that case it would make sense to have a split where:

Source package name: psautohint

Two binary packages:
psautohint (/usr/bin/*)
python3-psautohint (python library)
