I put some patches in gnu/packages/patches, I listed them in Makefile.in
and tried to make guix

I get this error

  GUILEC   gnu/packages/python.go
make[2]: ***  Nessuna regola per generare l'obiettivo
"gnu/packages/patches/python-genshi-0.7-disable-speedups-for-python34",
necessario per "all-am".  Arresto.

which means:

No rule for generating the target
"gnu/packages/patches/python-genshi-0.7-disable-speedups-for-python34"
which is required by "all-am"

Genshi needs to be patched, in order to work.

As you can see here
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/python3-genshi

The last release doesn't compile with python > 3.3, one test fails and
other small things.

I noticed that the Genshi in Fedora is patched to fix exactly those things.

The patches that I put in gnu/packages/patches are from the Fedora rpm

How do I correctly patch Genshi ?

Thanks in advance

You have to list patches in "gnu/local.mk" which is used by the top
Makefile.  Not very clear at first, I know.

Is this patch in a commit upstream, or is it something which could be
done with the (substitute) procedure (is that the correct term?)?

They are upstream.
As far as I understand they have been carefully cherrypicked by the Genshi
Fedora mantainer.

Right now I'm tired, I'm not very lucid. I've been tinkering for a bunch of
hours

From the outside Genshi looks like an abandoned package. It looks like it's
not been worked on for 5 years.

Last release doesn't pass tests and doesn't build with python3

It's not like that. The stuff is scattered in several branches, tickets and
stuff.

Because of my inexperience I didn't look immediately at the Fedora package.
There, things are clear.

I wasted a lot of time on this.

Now I have some inbalanced parenses and I'm too tired to fix them. I have
to rest a bit

Thanks
