Looking for a packager

2018-10-05 Thread Pjotr Prins

Hello Guix, I have written a package definition for Inferno and I would like to know if it would make sense to add it to Guix. I am asking because I am not sure if it is compatible with the FSDG (bundled fonts, trademarks, ...) and if it would be of any use to anyone. It builds reproducibly on m
