Did you not use the CRAN importer to generate this package definition?
If you did not then you’re in for a treat as “guix import cran -r” can
*recursively* generate package definitions for packages on CRAN, even if
there are dozens of dependencies.
I guess this was my mistake. I did not understand that before. I just used guix import  cran  <rpackage> for the templates and appended my package with guix edit :/. I will send that fixed.

If you used the importer this is not your fault.  On CRAN the license is
listed as “GPL-3” which the importer turns into “gpl3”.  Often people
declare the license as just a single version even though their own
license headers permit later versions.

PS: please try to reduce the amount of text you quote in replies.  It’s
best to only leave the relevant parts that you’re replying to :)
