Hi,

This patch adds mruby-zest, a dependency of zynfusion. I had some help
from the developer for making it build without connecting to the
internet.

Thanks,
Alex

Hey Alex,

Thanks for taking the time to package mruby-zest.

So I spotted the use of a "deps" directory, which is a bad sign, as
dependencies should be other packages, not things as part of this
package.

I then spotted that the source for this package isn't the upstream Git
repository, but a Git repository that pulls together the mruby-zest
source code, with code from ~16 other Git repositories.

Would it be possible to create Guix packages for these dependencies?

I know that would involve quite a bit of work, but unfortunately that
kind of work is necessary to ensure Guix as a collection of packages can
be maintained in the long term.

Hi Christopher,

Thanks for the review.

It would indeed be best to package each dependency first, but I don't
really have time to package all those dependencies, and I also don't
have much knowledge about ruby. If someone else is willing to do it,
please go ahead.

Thanks,
Alex
