python-identifiersA string of sorted Python identifiers. In most cases the identifiers will be paths, but for system Pythons, 'sysconfig.get_config_var("EXT_SUFFIX")' will be included. The string will be separated by OS-specific PATH separators; ":" is used on Linux and macOS, and ";" is used on Windows.
