If you want to try this out quickly, you could use code from the
topological sorting SRFI I’m slowly finalizing:

https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-234/srfi-234.html

For usage see: https://github.com/scheme-requests-for-implementation/srfi-234/blob/main/srfi-234-test.scm

Code: https://github.com/scheme-requests-for-implementation/srfi-234/blob/main/srfi/234-impl.scm

edgelist->graph should do the conversion from inputs per package to the
input format.

Best wishes,
Arne
