I here's my first attempt at packaging something, I noticed that vim-solarized
was missing so I tried to write a package for it.

Thank you!


The only warning I got was from the guix lint which told me it couldn't find upstream releases. I believe this is due to vim-solarized particular structure:
it's a light «clone» of the main repository
https://github.com/altercation/solarized containing only the vim-files.

Hmm. Could we install from this authoritative(?) source instead, even if the download's bigger?

(https://github.com/vim-scripts/Solarized) which has made a tag (the same version name that I chose) so we could be using either the full repository (more unneeded data retrieved during the build) or this second copy (they do provide a tag but isn't it better to remain as close as possible to the
original source ?).

Oh, I think we agree.  :-)

/tmp λ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/vim-scripts/Solarized
Cloning into 'Solarized' [...]
/tmp λ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/altercation/solarized
Cloning into 'solarized' [...]
/tmp λ du -hs [Ss]olarized
196K    Solarized
30M     solarized

The relative difference is huge but I think 30M is worth it.

Could you make this change, test, and send a V2? I'm no adherent of the Vim.

I hope my patch is correct and thank you everyone for being such a welcoming community and having made my experience with Guix so far absolutely great !

Thank you!  We try to do our best...

Your patch is great. I'd make the following tweaks before committing. You can incorporate them into your V2 if you want.

The description should explain what the package is to someone who's never heard of it. We actually recommend ~10 lines (more is fine), although many existing packages don't meet that bar. The synopsis should do the same in one line.

Don't be afraid to temper fawning upstream marketing-speak and empty taglines like this one. That doesn't mean it can't be positive (like mine -- I hate Solarized).

C-M-q reindented the source field according to the same rules as etc/indent-code.el. Better to do so before committing it, so future committers can just run C-M-q on the entire expression without creating unrelated whitespace noise.

+when switching between the light and dark background modes.")
