In any case I'm sure sirgazil is not the only user of this package, so
we should try and find a resolution quickly.

As a side note, this bug report could have been easily prevented by
building the few packages listed by 'guix refresh -l python{,2}-black'
before pushing!  Not to single out Ricardo here (I forget this too
occasionally), but I expect contributors to do this in general and think
we should keep a low threshold for reverting breaking commits.
