Great, thanks.   One of the nice features of OpenFOAM is that the principles of operation on laptops is just the same as that on supercomputers. > Paul seems to have access to a biffy build machine ;-), so maybe you > can > update/adjust the patch, Paul? Well, based on feedback on the existing package definition, I am starting to think about how best to deal with multiple versions and simplify the patch step.  There is a new version (5.0) that has been released that I can work on.   It is likely to take some time, although it should be quicker to develop than the original definition.  So, if Dave can take charge of this finishing patch (#28593) that would work best for me. In the meantime, I have made an announcement of the package availability on the CFD Online discusssion forum.  The link is: https://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-news-announcements-other/193 865-openfoam-4-1-packaged-gnu-guix.html Best regards, Paul.
