Guix is a work in progress. Did you search for the packages using "guix
search"?

Would you like to try packaging one of them? See
http://guix.gnu.org/blog/2018/a-packaging-tutorial-for-guix/

If not I suggest you post to help-guix in the future as this mailing
list is for developing related questions.

Psst: packaging is not as hard as it looks, there are lots of helpful
people here to give you hints and a hand if you get stuck.

Hello Guix!

Based on information from [1], [2], [3] and [4]; I have formulated a
chart to keep track of things easily. :-)

CHART: https://calc.disroot.org/2nu6mpf88ynq.html

As a start, I will be working on packaging gnome-contacts, gnome-music
and gnome-weather.

If anyone did any task(s) from the chart, please let me know and I will
update the chart accordingly.

I have a patch for gnome-contacts bit rotting around:
https://gitlab.com/jonsger/Guix/commit/6c4103783ec937026e270c347b471673eb6ee0aa

I think it build but didn't start. Back then it was required to base it
on top of core-updates. But I think it now can be done on top of master.

Neat!

This wasn't anything I did, but I believe that Simple Scan is packaged as 
simple-scan, so it's status can be updated :)

Best,
Jack

Nice, thanks :)

For what is worth, GNOME Help (Yelp) is packaged, but not the documentation of the GNOME desktop, which I think is essential to have a better desktop experience.

Just to future-proof this table, instead of having "is this package up
to date?", let's rather use "packaged version".  Perhaps we could even
use separate columns for master, staging and core-updates.  This is
especially valuable considering that we are currently on 3.30 rather
than 3.32 or 3.34, making all of those values 0 by definition.

Regards,
Leo

That's a good idea. Thanks!
