Please use the -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY=ON #:configure-flags I suggested
to reduce the output size, as suggested in my original review.

Please do not set default values for arguments to this anonymous
procedure; it just clutters the view (#:tests? is always passed by the
build system -- it is it which holds the default value).

It looks like you overlooked my suggestion to sort the
native-inputs/inputs.

Why the license change from gpl3+ to gpl3?  The former was correct.

Otherwise, LGTM.

Could you send a v3?
