[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi guix!

For folks into music production, this patch set adds drumgizmo, an high
quality MIDI drum.  It comes with a standalone application and an LV2
plugin (VST should also be there, but I could not build it).  I tested
both the cli and the lv2 plugin (inside carla) and they work fine.

Along with it, I added dgedit, a drumkit kit editor.

I also added three drumkits.  Those are big (2 to 5Gb), and the build is
just extract+copy, so I don't know if I should add #:substitutable? #f.
There's no standard path for those, so I'm placing them under
share/drumkits/DRUMKIT_NAME.

guix lint does not complain and they all build fine

Thanks!

Isn't it currently necessary?  Because lv2 doesn't have a LV2_PATH
search path yet.

I think this would be resolved by adding the search path to the 'lv2'
package (and removing it from lv2-mda-piano, mda-lv2 and calf).

The convention is to add the search paths to the users of the plugins,
not the plugins theirselves.  Cf. GUILE_LOAD_PATH, LIBRARY_PATH,
MINETEST_MOD_PATH, EMACSLOADPATH, INFOPATH ...  See
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49533#5>.

The benefit is that this avoids forgetting LV2_PATH for some plugins,
as it only needs to be added to relatively few places (lv2 itself,
maybe guitarix, maybe ir, arour ...).

Greetings,
Maxime
