My only difference is in the (arguments), where I do:

      (arguments
       `(#:test-target "test"
         #:phases
         (modify-phases %standard-phases
           (replace 'configure ; No configure phase
             (lambda* (#:key outputs #:allow-other-keys)
               (let* ((out  (assoc-ref outputs "out"))
                      (bin  (string-append out "/bin/")))
                 (substitute* "Makefile"
                   (("/usr/local/bin")
                    bin))
               (mkdir-p bin))))
           (add-after 'install 'wrap-programs
             (lambda* (#:key outputs #:allow-other-keys)
               ;; Make sure all executables in "bin" find the Perl modules
               ;; provided by this package at runtime.
               (let* ((out  (assoc-ref outputs "out"))
                      (bin  (string-append out "/bin/"))
                      (path (getenv "PERL5LIB")))
                 (for-each (lambda (file)
                             (wrap-program file
                               `("PERL5LIB" ":" prefix (,path))))
                           (find-files bin "\\.*$"))
                 #t))))))


Your synopsis and description are better than mine, otherwise the
packages are almost identical.
