I'm not opposed to building things from version control more often
(it makes things like "--with-commit" work more often).  However,
this seems more a change to discuss at guix-devel@.

Also, how does this address the test failure?  The pypi and git are at
the same version. Did upstream adjust the 'release/2.3.0' tag in place
or something?

Greetings,
Maxime.
