Trying nixpacks with python provider, but "python" not found

Hey all! I'm trying to set up a python provider nixpacks.toml file (copied at bottom for convenience/full transparency). When I do this, I get the following error:

 => ERROR [stage-0  6/14] RUN --mount=type=cache,id=kfWxs0zicKI-/root/cache/pip,target=/root/.cache/pip python -m venv --copies /opt/venv && . /opt  0.1s
------                                                                                                                                                    
 > [stage-0  6/14] RUN --mount=type=cache,id=kfWxs0zicKI-/root/cache/pip,target=/root/.cache/pip python -m venv --copies /opt/venv && . /opt/venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt:
0.067 /bin/bash: line 1: python: command not found

I don't know much about nixpacks, but I'm assuming this is because I'm running on my Mac, which uses python3 and pip3 by default? This is coming from the tool-supplied install step:

python -m venv --copies /opt/venv && ./opt/venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt

Full config file:

providers = ["python"]

[phases.setup]
nixPkgs = ["ollama", "geoipupdate"]

[phases.setup-ollama]
cmds = ["ollama serve", "ollama run llama3.1"]
dependsOn = ["setup"]

[phases.setup-geoipupdate]
cmds = ["build-geoip-conf.sh", "geoipupdate -f ./GeoIP.conf -d ./maxmind-dbs"]
dependsOn = ["setup"]

[start]
cmd = "python3 ./webapp/main.py"
Solved

Got this resolved by Brody in Discord. I forgot ["..."] in the nixPkgs section to spread out python3 and gcc installation 🤦🏾‍♂️
