Nice!

I've read through the series, and the only remark I have is that it's
better to use 'perl-license' rather than (package-license perl) (see the
comment in (guix licenses)).  Probably won't be a problem any time soon,
but still.

Regarding the -2 variants, I assume other packages fail to build if they
are simply updated?  It would be good to have comments about it in the
code.

Apart from that LGTM, thank you!
