It seems no proper source tarball is available on PyPI, only a "wheel":
<https://pypi.org/project/mallard-ducktype/>
The importer uses those to extract requirements.txt, and apparently
returns the wheel hash when it fails to find a proper source. That is
probably a bug.
In this case it is probably easiest to download the source from the
upstream repository, or ask the maintainer to upload a tarball.
