Hello!

How do you build the package?  c-make?  meson?  autotools?

Guix provides some fairly common build systems.  There's a lot of examples of 
package definitions in the guix source code gnu/packages/ directory.  If you
run into any issue packaging, you can always ask more specific questions here
or on irc in #guix.

Best luck!
