Thanks for this contribution!

Unfortunately, depending on python2-urwid is a problem; we are trying to
purge Python 2 packages from Guix so do not want to add new ones.

Since the latest version is Speedometer 2.8 - 2011-12-08, according to
[0], I think it's fair to say that it is unmaintained and refuse adding
it to our collection on this basis.

I'll close the issue; feel free to send a Python 3 version if and when
it becomes a thing.

Thanks,
