pyvips installs in abi mode despite vips being present

See original GitHub issue

Is there an argument I can pass to pyvips to find a local install of libvips ?

(ipy3) [sajid@xrmlite ~]$ which vips
~/packages/spack/opt/spack/linux-centos7-x86_64/gcc-8.3.0/libvips-8.7.4-rilxe37cjuisabs3kzapoljmdcr7jivc/bin/vips

I don’t think you can use ~ in env vars, can you? I’m on my phone, so I can’t check until tomorrow.
