Can't install pynvim with pipx #522

$ pipx install pynvim                                                           

No apps associated with package pynvim or its dependencies. If you are attempting to install a library, pipx should not be used. Consider using pip
or a similar tool instead.

As I understand it, pipx only works for applications that have cli entrypoints. As pynvim is purely a library and not an application with cli functionality it specifically will not work with pipx. See the following link for pipx vs pip comparison:

Comparison to Other Tools - pipx

In short, I don't believe this is an issue.
