Hi Jakob, Thank you for the patch! Delayed as it may be, I have some small points of order to share. We try to follow the Changelog format in commit logs, see https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html for the thorough explanation (or just have a look at commit logs for some of the other packages that were added by people).

(backup from Steve Bensons's tcptrack)") The description should contain complete sentences, if possible. How about something like this: Tcptrack is a sniffer which displays information about TCP connections it sees on a network interface. This is a fork of Steve Benson’s tcptrack. (Note the double spacing after the .) > + (home-page "https://github.com/bchretien/tcptrack") > + (license license:lgpl2.1))) Having looked at the source archives, I think there are a bunch of GPLv2+ licensed source files in the tarball (note the missing L). Could you perhaps open an issue so the author(s) could (re)confirm the status of these source files? The folks over at [1] also indicate the package is licensed as GPLv2+, so there may be some confusion about the licensing status of the package.
