Because of the documentation string says “return #f on failure” (not
kill REPL on failure or terminate a Guile process):

    Fetch the metadata for PACKAGE-NAME from pypi.python.org, and return the
    `package' s-expression corresponding to that package, or #f on failure.

and because Why an import package function kill my Emacs's Geiser?  :'(


I'm trying to implement recursive-import for pypi based on cran's
recursive-import.  Killing Guile process will be an issue, I guess.

Oleg.
