Ah, missed that flag. I don't think it's necessarily expected, I
remember it working without that on Arch, and I don't think they patch
Blender. I could just pacman -Si python-numpy and Animation Nodes
worked.
Maybe we should make that the default if we wanna package Blender
addons. (Which I very much want. A reproducible art pipeline would be a
very nice use case indeed.)
