Oh, yes.  guix lint warns about pytest and mock.  Thanks for notice!

Everything else probably required at run time.

Dunno about services.  I use it as livestreamer:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    # View a video stream from a predefined services in MPV
    streamlink -p mpv URL QUALITY
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


By the way livestreamer is not maintained anymore.

From <https://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer>:

    Command-line utility that extracts streams from various services and
    pipes them into a video player of choice. No longer maintained, use
    streamlink or youtube-dl instead.

Probably livestreamer should be removed from Guix, but I'm not sure.
