I don’t know for sure why any of these packages’ tests fail. typeguard
looks like it expects specific strings from Python or one of its libraries
– safe to ignore. sgmllib3k looks pretty dead upstream. Perhaps it’s
not even needed any more? Updates to Python packages (via `guix refresh`)
do not update dependencies and thus the list of inputs/native-inputs
are most likely outdated.

Well, there are reasons no-one is updating the Python ecosystem
regularly…

Cheers,
