Help neeeded to package guile-wiredtiger and microkanren

[Amirouche]

Héllo

I am willing to pay 100€ or offer equivalent work for someone that will
package guile-wiredtiger and microkanren.

guile-wiredtiger [1] is a binding of wiredtiger for guile using ffi.
It doesn't have autotools, I'd rather keep it that way. The guix package
must run the test suite as per guix standard. wiredtiger is already 
packaged.

microkanren is a micro version of minikanren. That is a single file project
that should be straightforward to package. Same I'd rather not have to deal
with autotools. microkanren doesn't have any dependency outside guile 2.2.

Payment will happen upon the patches are accepted in guix.

Please do not work on packaging this stuff before contacting me to agree on
a payment method.

I am amz3 on IRC.


Thanks in adavance,

Hi Amirouche! :)

What is the status of this?

- Was there any previous attempt?

  - What are the findings so far?

- Does it need a system service to be running?

- Since your last message, is there someone working on this now?

Yes, I am. Or rather, I am waiting for the weekend when Amirouche
is about to look into the trade I offered.

Oh, I see.

Thanks for the information, I first thought this was overlooked. :)

I found someone for the task. Thanks for showing up nonetheless.

Yes but I deleted the files.

No! It's a library, it works like sqlite except it's multithread.

Yes.

Have a good day!

I have a question about how the built packages should be laid out on disk.

Looking at existing Guile packages, I saw that some of them put everything under
'share/guile/site/2.{0,2}'. Others put the source files in that directory, while
putting the compiled .go objects in 'lib/guile/2.{0,2}/site-ccache.

Do you have a preference? It's not clear to me what the difference is in
practice.

.go files are architecture-dependent and thus they should go to $libdir
(info "(standards) Directory Variables"), specifically
lib/guile/2.x/site-ccache.

(In the past I made the mistake in several projects to install
everything in share/guile/site/2.0…)
