Hi Lukasz,

Apologies for the delay!

I think the patch series is close to being ready; we’ll need a few
changes before we’re done.

Please make one patch adding the package, and another one adding the
service.

In each patch, please make sure to add the new file to gnu/local.mk (you
can check the Git history for examples.)

Toggle quote (4 lines)

We’ll need the license/copyright header as you noted.

Please add a comment explaining why tests are skipped. That should be a
last resort.

This is unnecessary.

I don’t think this can work because (which "") returns #f but ‘setenv’
expects a string.

Toggle quote (4 lines)

Is it necessary? The default ‘bootstrap’ phase does something similar.

Toggle quote (2 lines)
> + (license license:gpl3)))

This should be ‘license:gpl3+’ because source file headers carry the “or
any later version” wording.

Indentation is off here (I noticed that ‘guix style’ got it wrong so I’m
fixing it now…).

Maybe s/disc/disk/ throughout for consistency?

Please add a period at the end, and write @command{ldmtool}.

One last thing: could you add documentation for the service in
doc/guix.texi, maybe under “Virtualization” or in some new section?
Please include a paragraph giving some context and an example.

Could you send updated patches?

Thanks in advance!

Ludo’.

Hi,

No problem at all regarding the delay. Unfortunately I've been busier than
usual in last few weeks (this is likely to continue for few more weeks).

Regarding the comments please see inline below.

I've posted a later patch that included those, but it was posted as a patch
on top of a patch so perhaps it wasn't well visible. I'll integrate it in
the next version.

Are parallel builds enabled by default? Or is there a convention not to
enable then unless some requirements are met?

I'll have to test it without. If setenv indeed fails now then it should
continue to work without it.

I've copied this phase from another package. If I remember correctly the
configure phase failed without. I'll have to test again to check.

OK, I'll keep the above.

I did see it (thanks!). It would be great though if you could send a
single “v2” patch that includes everything.

Yes, that’s why.

Yes please.
