[PATCH 1/3] gnu: Add imlib2.

[Alex Kost]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 246 bytes --]

Hello,

This is a patchset for scrot and dependencies (giblib and imlib2).
All 3 packages have some custom licenses, so I used "bsd-style", but I'm
not sure about it.  Along with the patch, I'm attaching "COPYING".  What
license it is?

Thanks.

Whenever I read "deal in the software without restriction", I think of x.org,
which I packaged. So this looks like the x11 license:
   http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/License:X11

This license adds more sentences, from the second sentence of the second
paragraph on: "In addition publicly documented acknowledgment must be given
 that this software has been used...".

So I suppose you should use x11-style.

In an effort to keep the number of source files down, would it make sense to
put the package into a file enlightenment.scm, which might in future receive
more recipes?

Agreed, with a comment explaining this.

Otherwise LGTM!

s/Library for//

Actually this should probably go to (gnu packages image), which is home
for all its friends.

Done.  Is there any convention about that?  I'm asking because there are
several "types" of synopses:

- Several synopses begin with "Library for" (libuv, fontconfig,
  lightning, ...)

- Few ones begin with "Library to" (cloog, petsc, ...)

- Some packages have the following synopsis structure:

    <package-name>, a library ...

  Some of them begin with a capital letter (libjpeg, libgpg-error,
  freetype, ...), and some with a small one (fpill, libogg, libpaper, ...)

- Many synopses end with "library" (libsamplerate, clucene, libgcrypt, ...)

Also (as I'm writing about synopses): is there a convention to begin a
synopsis with a capital letter?  There are synopses beginning with a
small letter (not counting synopses beginning with a package name):
gnome-vfs, cdparanoia, signing-party, ...

Also there are 2 packages with synopses beginning with an article:
“pkg-config” and “id3lib”, but it's a lower-case article (perhaps "guix
lint" should be adjusted for this case).

OK, initially I wanted to put it there, but then I found that “giflib”
is in a separate file, so I thought that maybe "image.scm" contains some
special image libraries.

If “giflib” also should be put in "image.scm", please don't move it
there before I push these imlib2/giblib commits  :-)
Thanks.

The modified patch is attached.  Good enough?

Not really.  The one above didn’t fit on the line, so I thought it would
make sense to strip a couple of words.  :-)

We should add a linter making sure the synopsis doesn’t exceed a certain
length, 60 characters, say.

Synopses starting with the package name are definitely frowned upon (we
should add a linter for that.)  The others listed above may or may not
be OK, depending.

Yes.  Another linter needed!

Perfect!

Thanks for tolerating and even encouraging nitpicking.  ;-)

If I understood correctly, “giflib” should be in "image.scm", right?

I have also added myself to the copyright lines as I forgot to do it
when I pushed “imlib2” and “giblib” there.  OK?
