Hello Guix,

Hi, I have a favor to ask of anybody in the guix community - is there
anybody who would be willing to finish this package for me, since I
can't build and test it?  This is a library that I need to use, but
maybe the only way that I can use it (until I upgrade my computer) will
be to install it as a substitute.

Or are there any other suggestions for how I can build this myself?


I attached the patch with some modifications for your review.
I compiled and installed the ola package correctly.

John, how I can make a real test to see if it works?


Thanks
