Thanks Ricardo, I did that and finally the package builds and installs fine, but for some reason running jack_mixer gives the following error:

[divya@lambda divya]$ jack_mixer
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/divya/.guix-profile/bin/jack_mixer", line 5, in <module>
    from jack_mixer.app import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'jack_mixer'

Is this also a path issue?

The package definition can be found here[0] and the source of the package here[1], I think the package is almost ready, just fix this and I’ll send a patch.
