This define-module block can be removed,
and the #:use-module can be moved to the top of the file.

I think there is a linter checking that ".git" is not included in GitHub
URLs. Try "./pre-inst-env guix lint vimpc".

"pkg-config" should most likely be in 'native-inputs', not 'inputs'.
The difference between 'inputs' and 'native-inputs' matters when
cross-compiling.
I'd suggest running
"./pre-inst-env guix build vimpc --target=x86_64-linux-gnu"
for testing, but meson-build-system (used by libmpdclient) doesn't
support cross-compilation yet (at least, on master it doesn't. On the
core-updates branch, meson-build-system supports cross-compilation),
so that wouldn't work yet anyway.

When disabling tests, always write a comment explaining why.
If the tests fail, that may indicate a real problem (that's
the purpose of tests).

The formatting went wrong here (whitespace and lonely parentheses).
I'd recommend using "git format-patch HEAD^..HEAD" and sending the patch
as an attachment, or using "git send-email".

This description doesn't explain anything to people who don't know what
'Mpd', 'Vi', 'nmpc' and 'ncmpcpp' are. I only know of the first two
(a music/video player and a customisable text editor), but only because
I've read something about it some time ago.
Browsing through the source code, I notice files named "lyricsloader.cpp",
"lyricsfetcher.cpp", "song.cpp". Maybe you could note that "vimpc"
is a music player?
Greetings,
Maxime.
