guix import: error: no source release for pypi package etelemetry 0.3.1
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://github.com/sensein/etelemetry-client'.
Several people already suggested that it would be more helpful to emit
something, including possibly a mere template for the faulty package,
than to emit nothing.
In the missing source case as above, I think the importer could actually
automatically switch to importing from a Git clone since it has all the
info.
