Having looked into npm and worked on the guix npm importer, I found that
even the some of the most trivial packages cannot be built from source.
Cyclic dependencies in the build systems.
So after having tried to get npm into GuixSD, I'm at the point of giving
up on npm and am planning to migrate away from it.
I can hardly imagine...but does this report in any way hint that some
packages can be built from source and how to do that?
Greetings,
janneke
