This is not free software. See https://github.com/mojaveazure/loomR/pull/24 Aside from this, I would like to say two things: > gnu/packages/bioinformatics.scm | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Let’s please not add R packages to (gnu packages bioinformatics) when it can be avoided. (In this case there’s no CRAN package, so it’s fine.) > +(define-public r-loomr > + (package > + (name "r-loomr") > + (version "0.2.0-beta") > + (source (origin > + (method url-fetch) > + (uri (string-append > + "https://github.com/mojaveazure/loomR/archive/" > + version ".tar.gz")) This is not okay as these generated tarballs are not stable. I haven’t seen these patches on guix-patches before — maybe I missed them. But we have been avoiding these kind of URLs since a long time and had I seen the patches on guix-patches I and other would probably have pointed this out. Can you please revert this ASAP? -- Ricardo
