maybe the following works
setupPyBuildFlags = [ "--install-base=$out" ];

Does not seem to work – no such option: --install-base. I also tried
installFlags = [ "--install-base=$out" ];
with the same result, and
installFlags = [ "--install-option=\"--install-base=$out\"" ];
which at least builds but the ${python} path is still used.

The option seems to be distutils-specific, while this package seems to be using setuptools. Edit: It is actually using distutils, no idea why it does not work.

Apparently, the problem is caused by pycairo reading an install flag during the build of the wheel. Just like with passing build flags to bdist_wheel, setuptools do not allow passing the install flags either – other than by using hacks like python setup.py install --root=_temp --prefix=/foo bdist_wheel (source). Let’s keep patching the source for now.
