Hi,

Thank you for the report.  Sadly, it appears that this package
python2-rpython does not build since a couple of months; if it had built
once.

<https://data.guix.gnu.org/repository/1/branch/master/package/python2-rpython/output-history>


On my machine, I get:

Since it python2 but in the same time there is not Python 3 version, the
question is: fix or remove?


All the best,
