Hi,

stem is now available as python-stem on all systems which are able to
run GNU Guix: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/

"guix package -i python-stem" installs the python3 variant (binary substitute),
"guix package -i python2-stem" installs the python2 variant (binary substitute).
See Guix manual 3.2
[https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/guix.html#Invoking-guix-package]
for an explanation if you want to link it, and on the ways to get the
sources based installation instead of the binary substitute.

It would be great to have the following added to
https://stem.torproject.org/download.html page:

GNU Guix / GuixSD

# python3 package:
% guix package --install python-stem

# python2 package:
% guix package --install python2-stem

On the side there can be the dar kvariant of the Guix package logo[1]

It is correct that there is no "sudo", it's no typo.

I did the initial packaging of it and will probably look for updates of
stem, but Guix is a collaborative project, anyone who feels responsible
can update and fix packages, it goes through a quality assurance process
before changes are applied to the source.
