Thanks for your submission. keyd looks like a neat package that I did not know about before! I'll leave some comments below about some things that I think can be improved. Can you look into them and send a second version? > --- > gnu/packages/keyd.scm | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 43 insertions(+) > create mode 100644 gnu/packages/keyd.scm When adding a new file, it should also be added to the list of files in gnu/local.mk. Also, the "This file is party of GNU Guix" header should be added to the beginning of this file (it can be copied from another one). You can also add a copyright line for yourself! Alternatively, you could put keyd in an existing file. linux.scm might be a good one. This is a little bit of a judgment call, and I'm not experienced enough to know what's best. Maybe someone else will chime in here, or you could ask for advice on IRC. > diff --git a/gnu/packages/keyd.scm b/gnu/packages/keyd.scm > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000000..48afd9f877 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/gnu/packages/keyd.scm > @@ -0,0 +1,43 @@ > +(define-module (gnu packages keyd)) > +(use-modules > + (guix packages) > + (gnu packages linux) > + (guix git-download) > + ((guix licenses) #:prefix license:) > + (guix build-system gnu)) > +(define-public keyd > + (package > + (name "keyd") > + (version "2.4.3") > + (source > + (origin > + (method git-fetch) > + (uri (git-reference > + (url "https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd") > + (commit (string-append "v" version)))) > + (sha256 > + (base32 > + "1awdp863amq95y990fi4wj389ssv3ip2daqz2ph23lsahwa6f5in")))) > + (arguments > + (list #:tests? ; no tests > + #f I looks to me like there are tests in the t directory. Can they be enabled? https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd/blob/5e4ef41b41ce02f7d6a9f2e51298810d84589e76/Makefile#L87-L91 Also, a little bit of a nitpick, but I think it would be easier to read if #tests? and #f were on the same line. > + #:make-flags > + '(list "CC=gcc" Unfortunately, there's a subtle bug here. Most of the time this will work, but when cross compiling, it will pick the wrong GCC (oops!). Fortunately we have a cc-for-target procedure that will pick the right one. Here's an example of it in use: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/linux.scm?id=fafd3caef0d51811a5da81d6061789e2908b0dac#n1591 > + "PREFIX=" > + (string-append > + "DESTDIR=" > + (assoc-ref %outputs "out"))) This can probably be upgraded to the new style of using gexps to find the output. The above example package does that.

Thanks again for your contribution, and hopefully you found this review helpful. All the best, Jack
Thanks for your review! I don't know how should i handle the tests requiring user to be root. I tried simply removing `sudo` calls but that didn't work, so tests are still disabled for now.
