Dear Guix,

Here I have a package recipe for perltidy.  The version number differs
from the usual scheme, but that's what the project uses, so I cannot do
much about it.

Is this OK to push?

As always, thanks for your time.

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen

I don’t think that’s a problem.

“perltidy” (as in the domain name) or “perl-tidy” (as in the tarball)?
I don’t remember what our naming guidelines say about this.  (I think
“perltidy” is correct.)

Is this necessary or can we just keep the tarball name as it is?

The rest looks good to me.  Thanks!

I think they are clear on the project's name.  For example, the homepage
title: “The Perltidy Home Page”

I guess not.  I thought we had to rename the tarballs to match the
package names (so in this case, without the dash).  If it is not
necessary, I will remove it from the final patch..

Okay, you’re right.  “perltidy” it is, then! :)

I just checked the packaging guidelines in the manual and couldn’t find
any statement on when to use “file-name”.  It is only described in
section 5.1.2:

     ‘file-name’ (default: ‘#f’)
          The file name under which the source code should be saved.
          When this is ‘#f’, a sensible default value will be used in
          most cases.  In case the source is fetched from a URL, the
          file name from the URL will be used.  For version control
          checkouts, it is recommended to provide the file name
          explicitly because the default is not very descriptive.

I think the original name is descriptive enough as it actually contains
the name of the package.

So I think you can remove the “file-name” expression and push this.

I pushed it after removing the "file-name" part.

Hello,

sorry for being late, but the number of messages on the list is simply
overwhelming...

Is it a perl "module"? Then it should be named "perl-tidy":
   https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Perl-Modules.html#Perl-Modules
If it is a perl "binary", then keeping the upstream name is the good solution.

In this case, maybe the latter holds? There is a ready-to-use perl script, but
also a file Tidy.pm.

From the man-page of "perltidy":
  Perltidy reads a perl script and writes an indented, reformatted
  script.

So even though it does provide a Perl::Tidy module, it's also a
stand-alone program that reformats existing Perl code.  What we could to
is split the package in two: one with the Perl::Tidy module (called
perl-tidy) and one with the stand-alone script (called perltidy).  I
think that would be a little confusing though.

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen

So it looks like you took the correct decision. There is no need to split
the package in two just to satisfy the naming conventions; they are meant
to make things easier for users, not more confusing!
