I noticed quite a bunch of submit requests to python packages such as https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/919833 (pip) and https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/919826 (ipython)

For the sake of sanity. Please don't add Yet Another Way of Flavor Switching to the Python world on openSUSE distros, especially not in a way that makes the specfiles even more complicated than they already are. The python-rpm-macros support for update-alternatives works. It is not great, but it is the best thing we have so far.

I have previously accepted number of these request and I am sorry, it was a mistake. All I was able to find, at least in d:l:p were reverted and their counterparts to openSUSE:Factory revoked. Stefan, please, suggest an improvement in https://github.com/openSUSE/python-rpm-macros/issues which would cleanly hide whole libalternative thing behind our current macros (if possible). It is not the reason, but all those requests also failed with errors like https://da.gd/hFPa0.
