Hi!  Building `python-txtorcon` 19.0.0 fails in the version of Guix shown
below:

```
$ LANG=C guix describe
Generation 56   May 02 2023 11:25:26    (current)
  guix 3f8c489
    repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    branch: master
    commit: 3f8c4899a9a67bb509a603bd21dcfcfab88c0e8e
```

This is not <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62924>, but an error caused by Python
3.10 completely removing abstract classes from `collections`.  This is the
final part of the build log:

```

```

It was reported in <https://github.com/meejah/txtorcon/issues/336> and fixed
in <https://github.com/meejah/txtorcon/commit/cc7ed186>, and incorporated to
version 20.0.0 as noted here:
<https://github.com/meejah/txtorcon/releases/tag/v20.0.0>.

Thanks and good weekend!
