Done!

But I still have some questions/problems:
 1- `etc/indent-code.el` re-indent the package differently than, for
    instance, python-3.7. Should I stick to what `etc/indent-code.el`
    does?
 2- To make it work I had to deactivate 4 tests. There was already a
    patch doing something similar ("This fails for unknown reasons on Guix"),
    but I'm pretty sure it would be better to work on fixing the problems, right?

This, I'll do in a second time.


Any comment welcome!
