I think we should stick to ASCII characters in package names, since it's
a bit difficult to type `guix install naršytuvas` for those who don't
have keyboards with the 'š' character.  You can do it in emacs with
insert-char or Evil digraphs, but not everyone uses the terminal in
emacs :)

(In fact, controversial studies show that some people may not even use
Emacs at all. This observation may well overturn the entirety of known
physics if proven.)
