Hi Steve,

Did you have a chance to look into Andreas’ comments about this patch?

Hi Ludo,

I got blocked as this patch caused me to look at whether we should be compiling to byte-code by default. I have not been able to achieve consensus so far (and have taken some time off from the thread):

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2024-02/msg00241.html

Having been unable to convince others I also asked the Clojure community:

https://clojureverse.org/t/should-linux-distributions-ship-clojure-byte-compiled-aot-or-not/10595

Their perspective is that:

a. We should not byte-code compile libraries (what Clojure calls AOT), but we could do so for tools/apps.
b. We should not package libraries at all

From both interactions I'm unsure if packaging this (or any other Clojure libs/tools) is the right move. 

Steve
