There are no upstream tags, this is simply the commit of the tag,
IIRC. So it's the proper release. Maybe I should simply put the version
here and use git-version in the origin field instead ?

Doable, although using I'm not sure there's a light approach for this
rather than patching half the file, which I think is not worth it. Will
investigate.

Since python is not propagated, this would mean that we expect the user
to have python-wrapper instead of python, I'm not sure we want to
enforce that because it might cause users to have to debug this. We
can of course propagate python-wrapper instead, but then we increase the
closure size.

No, actually I couldn't, but I didn't settled for a stable
configuration, I wanted to send that to RDE, but haven't done it
yet.
