Hi Guix,
I've cleaned up my gctp patch, following your advice:

If it's not possible to use the bundled GCTPs then we have to use an
external library, but I think it should be maintained outside of
Guix.
As you say, it should not be much work to put it on a public Git
repo or
to host a tarball, since the development is basically complete.
I took the contents of the gctpc20.tar.Z archive distributed with
wgrib2, added an autoconf-based build script, and published the
repository on Github. Changes are minor: I had to make some changes
to the test programs, and fix one input routine (int size mismatch
when reading an auxiliary binary file).
This version of the patch uses a release tarball published on github.
Is there a better place I can host a tarball (if not the repository
itself?).
best,
Thomas
