The "package-with-python" procedure expects to get a py3 equipped
package as argument. For python2-only packages, I prefer to have the
inputs explicitly set to the python2 variants.

Is it possible to use 'pypi-uri' here?

I don't think Texinfo syntax is supported in synopses. See e.g.

https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/r.html#ruby-minitest-bonus-assertions

Here "get_terminal_size" and "shutil" would be clearer with an @code{}
wrapper IMO. Otherwise LGTM.
