  Hello,

thanks for the patch! I tried to remove the marketing speech out of the
description. For the #:build-type, the default value (release with debug
information) also works and results in a package of the same size. Is there
a reason to change it? Modified patch attached.

I can also compile the package without the configure flags, are they
useful?

In the end dynamic and static libraries end up in a directory lib64/.
Should this not be lib/?

And there are lots of warnings about 34 bit shifts in a 32 bit type.
But I suppose you tested that the library works.

Andreas

Hello!

I am the author of the initial version of this patch (kudos to Sharlatan 
for cleaning it up and bringing to guix proper!)

The debug build type is unnecessary verbose (see src/uns.cc line 71-73 
for an example) to the point that it impacts performance sometimes, 
which is important considering the usecase of the library.

Checked again, I still cannot compile it without -DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=14

I have not noticed any issues using it during the past two years, but 
this cannot be considered a proper test because I am actually using a 
small subset of the library. Perhaps, this warning should be reported 
upstream, thanks!


All the best,
Iliya
