ModuleNotFoundError
It's possible there's a compiler error:
INFO: CCompilerOpt.cache_flush[857] : write cache to path -> /build/scikits.odes-2.6.4/build/temp.linux-x86_64-cpython-310/ccompiler_opt_cache_ext.py
error: builder for '/nix/store/s0mwadpzrjhskd1pnj6z9l4mmdrwmdpy-python3.10-scikits.odes-2.6.4.drv' failed with exit code 1;
I don't know much about the build process, but it does a partial recompile every time I try to install it, which seems to mean the package is not happy. It would be nice if it gave more of an indication that I would be wasting my time going into python and looking for a package that it knows I want but isn't there. So it could be useful to add a pythonImportsCheck parameter into its buildPythonPackage call

Happy to accept a PR which fixes it (the nix instructions were added in #102, and the nix packaging isn't managed by us).
After getting a lot of help, this seems to work
