If you add the relevant pip module to the BuildRequires and use
"<target_python> -m pip install" to do the installation (rather than
plain distutils or setuptools), you'll get a full manifest as a CSV as
described in https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0376/#record

Passing "--record <filename>" to install will also do this, although
I'm not sure of the format in that case.

Cheers,
Nick.
