Hello!

Nice work!  I wonder if this could be used for the ‘node-semver’ package
that arrived at about the same time: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/36599>.

Jelle Licht <jlicht <at> fsfe.org> skribis:

>> +(define* (install #:key outputs inputs global? #:allow-other-keys)

Note that ‘@’ here matches anything.  Did you mean '@, which would match
the @ symbol?

I’m gratuitously nitpicking as well :-), but I think we should spell out
names in general, so I’d propose s/src-dir/source/, s/tgt-dir/target/,
etc.

Anyway, thanks for working on it!
