Hi Eric,

Eric Bavier <ericbavier@centurylink.net> skribis:

> It seems to me that if using Guix's profiles and environments, we could e=
ntirely do without OpenFOAM's installation directories and simply install i=
nto a standard bin/lib structure.  Just install libraries into (string-appe=
nd %output "/lib") and the binaries into (string-append %output "/bin").

Fair enough.  I guess the question is more whether (1) this would work
:-), and (2) whether seasoned OpenFOAM users would be happy with this.

WDYT, Paul?
