Can't we improve the output here? For version numbers, this is not a format which happened recently which is exclusive for python build system right? This is just bad formated because of the pypi query. I will first try and not pin the application to these version numbers, maybe itjustworks™. To reproduce: "guix import pypi searx" -- ng0
