Unless there is a good reason, Guix prefers using stable > releases: The most recent release won't build because it expects a dependency that no longer exists. I do not know which of the thousands of commits since then fixed that issue so, I cannot easily generate a patch. It follows that the best choice is to use the most recent commit, which I can confirm does not have that critical issue. I added a comment to explain why I specify the most recent commit. I also added a note that it should be updated when the next stable release is available (the maintainers seem to prefer announcing new releases every September). I will personally update this in mid-September or October if version 0.4.8.1 or 0.4.9 or 0.5 or 1.0 is available and no volunteer beats me to it. If you want I can also request release 0.4.8.1 ASAP so we can specify a release rather than a commit. I personally prefer to keep the commit and wait three or four months for the release. > > (commit version) > > > + (sha256 > > + (base32 > > + "1wsw632l1cj17px6i88nqjzs0dngp5rsr67n6qkkjlfjfxi69j0f")))) > > + (arguments > > + '(#:tests? #f)) > > You should include a comment explaining why tests are removed.

Note that in the wiki, "4X" is a link, so you can get further > information. The link says that 4X refers to a genre of strategy game centered around conquest. I think the current context is a sufficient explanation, but I did expand the description. I think it is best to keep the 4X in the description in case someone tries a search for that genre. > > > + (license (list license:gpl2 license:cc-by-sa3.0)))) > > Could you explain, in a comment, why there are two licenses?
