It looks to me like unicorn fails to build, so I think that needs fixing
before we can consider updating pwntools.

Notice that there are newer releases of unicorn. I tried 1.0.2 (without
the -rc4) and 1.0.3, but both have the same test failure.

The current version is 2.0.1, but it does not build with the recipe
as it is.

I think if can remove some failed tests, let unicorn can build success.

Well, that is always a possibility of last resort, but hiding problems
does not make them go away... We try to limit this to cases where it is
justified (tests that need network access and will not work in the Guix
build environment, for instance).

Agree, not other way to resolve this.

Subject: unicorn failed test fixed
Date: Tue, 9 May 2023 12:20:06 +0800

Hi!

I discovered latest unicorn version is fix failed tests, here is snippet for unicorn:

``` scheme
(define-public python-unicorn
  (package
    (name "python-unicorn")
    (version "2.0.1.post1")
    (source (origin
              (method url-fetch)
              (uri (pypi-uri "unicorn" version))
              (sha256
               (base32
                "0mlfs8qfi0clyncfkbxp6in0cpl747510i6bqymwid43xcirbikz"))))
    (build-system pyproject-build-system)
    (native-inputs (list cmake pkg-config))
    (home-page "http://www.unicorn-engine.org")
    (synopsis "Unicorn CPU emulator engine")
    (description "Unicorn CPU emulator engine")
    (license #f)))
```

This snippet is generated from guix import pypi, I build it on my local machine, all test is
passed.

Hello,

cc to the last person who has worked on the unicorn package, in case they
can help.

The current unicorn package has a lot more code, which may or may not be
needed after updating to a new major version; but it would be nice if
someone familiar with the package and actually using it could do the update
and check that it still works.
