Actually, I think it should be the higher-level sexp: #$(this-package-input "perl-archive-zip")
How can one know, this one to use?
The blog post is more like a historical story, not a tutorial for converting. It uses both
#~`("--disable-color"
,(string-append "--with-gawk=" #$gawk))))
and
#~(list (string-append "--with-gawk="
#$(this-package-input "gawk")))))
The manual seems to mostly use
the former way.
