Hi Guillaume,

thanks for your help. I tried what you suggested and I'm combining clog
and clog/docs now. I pushed it here: https://github.com/r0man/guix/tree/clog

But I'm not sure I'm much further. Now I'm seeing the following error
when I try to build the sbcl-clog-tools package:

  Component #:CLOG not found, required by #<SYSTEM "clog/tools">

I added sbcl-clog to its inputs, but somehow asdf can't find the
system. I saw this error in one of my previous experiments as well.

Any idea why sbcl-clog-tools can't find the clog system? I believe the
sbcl-clog package is more or less fine, since I can build sbcl-clog-ace,
another package that uses the clog system.

Thanks, Roman.
