[bug#28606] [PATCH] gnu: Add dino.

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello,

Ricardo Wurmus <rekado@elephly.net> skribis:

> * gnu/packages/messaging.scm (dino): New variable.

That looks alright to me!

> +         ("vala" ,vala)

I found there’s a tendency to include Vala-generated C code (see
‘lxsession’ for instance.)  It might be worth checking if that’s the
case here.

> +      (synopsis "Modern Jabber (XMPP) client")
> +      (description "Dino is a Jabber (XMPP) client which aims to fit well into

Nitpick: I don’t like “modern”!  :-)  I think it’s very subjective and
unhelpful.  Maybe something like “Graphical Jabber client”, and
something that says it’s well integrated with GNOME and whatnot?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Thanks for the review!

It looks like there is no generated C code in the repository.  There’s
only a handful of C files, and they look like source code.

Hah, as a fellow user of a decidedly “un-modern” desktop environment I
agree :)  I’ll change it to something more neutral-sounding.
