Hello,

I am trying to package UDUNITS2¹ which is a dependency of Netcdf4. I am
getting an syntax error while building guix.

I pasted the following in maths.scm (similar to units package definition). 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public udunits
  (package
    (name "udunits")
    (version "2.2.4")
    (source (origin
              (method url-fetch)
              (uri (string-append "ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/udunits/udunits-" version
                                  "-Source.tar.gz"))
              (sha256 (base32
                       "04zs1jcn90gl58ypbb8sqg9ddq4dc7md3a3xmlgi2xabbj136arh"))))
    (build-system gnu-build-system)
    (arguments `(#:tests? #f
                          #:configure-flags '("--with-pic")))
    (synopsis "C library provides for arithmetic manipulation of units and for
conversion of numeric values between compatible units")
    (description
     "The UDUNITS package supports units of physical quantities. Its C library
provides for arithmetic manipulation of units and for conversion of numeric
values between compatible units. The package contains an extensive unit
database, which is in XML format and user-extendable. The package also
contains a command-line utility for investigating units and converting
values.")
    (license license:x11-style "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Unidata/UDUNITS-2/master/COPYRIGHT")
    (home-page "http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/udunits/")))

Now when I try to build guix by running make the following syntax error coming
up.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Seems I am making basic mistake. Thanks for any hints.
