Hi Maxim,

Thanks for feedback, it's my one of the long pending package to Guix
due to it's complexity.
I initially followed packaging approach which Debian had but some of
the large projects are not packed yet (ADA for example) so it's
simplified version with less bindings.

It's required for some other astronomical software depending on it.

Regards
