work on KDE will definitely be very welcome. During the discussion, Hartmut
said he did not want to work on using the modular Qt instead of the mono-
lithic one. But as I see it, this is a necessary condition to accept the
patches into Guix.

So in a first step, it might also be interesting to complete our Qt packages.

I would suggest to order the packages in kde-frameworks.scm according to the
different "tiers", and to add a comment when a new tier is started, similarly
to the comments in xorg.scm. There is already one package there that was
added before the modular Qt appeared, and which would need to be modified
accordingly.

If you wish to work on any of these topics, please go ahead!

Andreas
