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

Hi,

Presuming minetest-advtrains and minetest-basic-trains build and actually
work, this largely LGTM.  I looked at the source code of advtrains and basic_trains
and didn't find anything ‘suspicious’ (e.g. malware, though mods are sandboxed
so they would have a hard time doing anything bad). 

minetest-advtrains and minetest-basic-trains are separate packages that
can be added separately, so theoretically, they should be added in separate
patches:

From (guix)Submitting Patches:
  11. Verify that your patch contains only one set of related changes.
     Bundling unrelated changes together makes reviewing harder and
     slower.

(minetest-advtrains seems rather useless without minetest-basic-trains though,
so maybe it's ok?)

Aren't the actual trains added with minetest-basic-trains?
Maybe replace ‘realistic trains’ -> ‘realistic train system’,
and note that minetest-basic-trains contains the actual train models.

I think a linter will have something to say about long lines here
(try "./pre-inst-env guix lint minetest-advtrains minetest-basic-trains").
