Hi Aaron,

Sorry for the long delay!

The comment above should rather complement the ‘description’ field of
the package.

For the commit log, we use a peculiar convention that consists in
describing the changes in terms of files, variables, etc.:

  https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html

(One of us can fix it up for you though, if needed.)

Rather than create a new file, I’d suggest putting it in
file-systems.scm.

> +    (build-system cmake-build-system)

You can remove “-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE” (the default is
“RelWithDebInfo”).

Could you send an updated patch?

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
