Dear list,

I've written a package description for my GNU package: InklingReader.
This is my first patch, so if I should've done something differently,
please let me know. 

Thanks,
Roel Janssen

Re: [PATCH] gnu: Add inklingreader

[Ricardo Wurmus]

Hi Roel,

thanks for the patch!

I wonder if the inklingreader could be added to an existing module.
Maybe ‘graphics.scm’?

Normally, we write it like this:

> * gnu-system.am (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.

If adding to an existing module it would be something like this:

You should be able to use “mirror://gnu/” here.  I don’t know the exact
URL, though (and I haven’t tried yet).

Since all software in Guix is free software you should not mention this
here again.

I wonder about the Inkscape plugin: does it work out of the box with our
inkscape package?

A very nice first contribution!  Thank you again.

Guix has somekind of "template" commit log when adding packages, you
will find multiple examples with

  git log --grep="(GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it"

When applying it to your package you will obtain this.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
gnu: Add inklingreader.

* gnu/packages/inklingreader.scm: New file.
* gnu-system.am (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.

this is automatically done, so this flag is not needed.

Actually the documentation is not built so I don't think this is needed.
If you want to easily provide the documentation to Guix you will need to
add the Automake variable "info_TEXINFOS" in you Makefile.am file in the
next release, see:

  https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Texinfo

I think It would be better to provide

  https://www.gnu.org/software/inklingreader/

Can you send an updated patch?

Thank you very much for your first package!

In fact the description is in gnumaint:

  http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/womb/gnumaint/pkgblurbs.txt?revision=1.61&view=markup

If it gets fixed in Guix it will need to be fixed there too, or ‘guix
lint’ will continue to report a suggested description.

I don't know how to fix it in gnumaint.. I can update the package
description on the Guix file of course.

Re: [PATCH] gnu: Add inklingreader

[Roel Janssen]

Hello Ricardo,

Thanks for your response.

> Maybe ‘graphics.scm’?

Well, InklingReader is a program with a GUI. Looking at 'graphics.scm'
seems to contain only libraries. The same seems to be true for
'image.scm'.

I'm fine with putting it in 'graphics.scm', but I don't think it belongs
there. (Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm new to Guix ;)

Sorry about that. Fixed in the second version.

I think this doesn't work for 'alpha.gnu.org' (at least 'guix lint'
crashes when using 'mirror://'). Other packages (like artanis) use
'ftp://alpha.gnu.org/...' as well.

If I am mistaking, please let me know what the URI should be.

It makes the compile command output shorter. Instead of displaying the
entire command ('gcc ...') it only displays the target name being
compiled.

I realise this may not be desired, so I removed it from the second
version.

Thanks. I removed texinfo completely because the build process doesn't
build the documentation anyway. The inputs specified now are all runtime
dependencies.

It's separated from the program. To enable the Inkscape extension, one
has to copy files from the repository to
'~/.config/inkscape/extensions/' so that Inkscape can find it.

The files are not included in the release. Should I remove the mention
of the Inkscape plugin from the description?

Thanks for your time,

Thanks again for your first package.  I hope you will be able to make

Ludo: Can you push the updated description in gnumaint?
