(sha256

but I guess this works too as long as lint is happy.

This is pulled from gitlab and the homepage is on gitlab? I think
it's better to use the gitlab repository as home-page then, or
what's the reason?

If I remember correctly, we should avoid starting synopsis and

(description "@code{python-pyodbc-c} provides …"
