Hello Robert,

Thanks for your patch, a few remarks below.

> +                          "minisat-mroot-and-install.patch"))))

Why are these patch needed? It seems that the last release was a long
time ago, maybe we should package it from a git commit?

                      ^
                      Is this really useful? It seems to build without.

It's a tacit agreement, but the order of package fields is often:

- synopsis
- description
- home-page
- license.

Could you re-order those fields?

Do not forget to add your copyright on top of the file, and to indent
your code properly (see:
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Formatting-Code.html).

Could you send an updated patch?

Thanks,

Mathieu
