I sent an e-mail from another address that doesn't seem to have made the guix-
patches mailing list.  The attached patches updates the version of python-
anndata, and fixes the build.

Note that for python-zarr I disabled the tests because the majority of the tests
need external packages.  We could add all dependencies to make the test suite
work, but that requires a significant amount of work (for example, the Azure SDK
for Python is one of the external dependencies).

Is it OK to move forward with the disabled test suite for python-zarr?

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
