python-jwst and python-poliastro fail to build for me on master
(c96ea941) due to test failures with floating point precision.

The remaining packages build successfully against this git 2.42 patch:
$ ./pre-inst-env guix build conan nototools python-bash-kernel
python-clinguin python-h3 python-keras python-telingo
/gnu/store/5lpypnafi7akb9yya82l29x4zrkgsw1v-python-telingo-2.1.1

/gnu/store/smrfjip766ifrcf3pzsfbjzp4hdsabd1-python-clinguin-1.0.0-beta
