The only download for the kaleido package on Pypi is a binary. There is
no source code on Pypi. The importer recognizes this but then prints a
confusing backtrace when attempting to print a hint:

./pre-inst-env guix import pypi kaleido
guix import: error: no source release for pypi package kaleido 0.2.1.post1

Fixed in ebb03447f8cc93b9e070b3e7706d7a64d5d1772c.

The problem was with projects that lack a home page on PyPI. For
others, the result looks like this:

Toggle snippet (8 lines)
$ ./pre-inst-env guix import pypi torch
guix import: error: no source release for pypi package torch 1.10.2

hint: This indicates that the package is available on PyPI, but only as a "wheel" containing
binaries, not source. To build it from source, refer to the upstream repository at
`https://pytorch.org/'.

Well, we are fixing importer per importer when the same issue appears
across many if not all the importers. For instance, a similar issue
for opam:


And I remember one about hackage but I cannot find the report -- maybe
fixed since then.

My point is : the importers would deserve a revamp and refactoring.
Maybe an Outreachy project. :-)


Cheers,
