Hi, I'm (still) trying to build Mininet and it uses both a Makefile for
building an C executable and setup.py to install its Python modules. I looked
at the soundconverter package to get some hints for mixing build systems but
couldn't get very far, I get all sorts of (mostly cryptic) error messages,
usually about missing modules.
What should I do? I'm pretty new to Guile and Guix but I've packaged software
for the AUR before.
I attached the code I currently have.
(define-module (raingloom packages mininet)
#:use-module (gnu packages networking)
#:use-module (gnu packages admin)
#:use-module (gnu packages python)
#:use-module (gnu packages python-xyz)
#:use-module (gnu packages linux)
#:use-module (gnu packages man)
#:use-module (gnu packages bash)
#:use-module (gnu packages gcc)
#:use-module (gnu packages)
#:use-module (guix packages)
#:use-module (guix git-download)
#:use-module (guix build-system gnu)
#:use-module (guix build-system python)
#:use-module (guix licenses))
