Hi Brice,

Nice!

It would be great to have tests for that in tests/crate.scm.  To that
end, I think you could lift ‘string->license’ to the top level (that is,
outside ‘crate->guix-package’), and then have a few tests along these
lines:

  (define string->license
    (@@ (guix import crate) string->license))

  (test-equal "GPL OR LGPL"
    (list license:gpl3+ license:lgpl3+)
    (string->license "GPL OR LGPL"))

(See
<https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Running-the-Test-Suite.html>.)

Let me know if anything is unclear.

Could you send an updated patch?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
