   @catwell In a similar vein, ‘guix import’ simplifies packaging work for a variety of repos:

   But while it’s accurate for CRAN (meaning that it generates something that packagers can usually take as-is), it’s not as good for other repos, in particular PyPI, due to poor metadata quality I believe.
