Hi, I have a favor to ask of anybody in the guix community - is there anybody who would be willing to finish this package for me, since I can't build and test it? This is a library that I need to use, but maybe the only way that I can use it (until I upgrade my computer) will be to install it as a substitute. Or are there any other suggestions for how I can build this myself? Thank you, -- John Foerch
