> As far as I can tell, the cabal parser for the `guix import` command 
> (https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/guix/import/cabal.scm) does 
> not support common stanzas, as specified in the cabal specification 
> (https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/3.4/cabal-package.html#common-stanzas).
>
> This means that some packages, like "versions" 
> (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/versions-5.0.0/src/versions.cabal) and all 
> depending packages cannot be imported using `guix import hackage versions`:
>
> ```
> $ guix import hackage versions
> Syntax error: unexpected token : common (at line 36, column 0)
> Syntax error: unexpected end of input
> guix import: error: failed to download cabal file for package 'versions'
