Morgan,

* gnu/packages/admin.scm (opendoas): New variable.

Thank you! It looks good to me. I've queued it locally with the (minor) changes below, but will wait a few days for <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/41579> to land if that's all right with you. I also need to test it as a proper setuid programme.

+(define-public opendoas

+    (version "6.6.1")
+    (source (origin
+              (method git-fetch)
+              (uri (git-reference
+ (url "https://github.com/Duncaen/OpenDoas.git";)
+                    (commit (string-append "v" version))))
+              (file-name (git-file-name name version))
+              (sha256
+               (base32
+ "07kkc5729p654jrgfsc8zyhiwicgmq38yacmwfvay2b3gmy728zn"))))
+    (build-system gnu-build-system)
+    (arguments (let* ((target (%current-target-system))

I've added a newline after ‘arguments’ to give your phases (and helpful comments) some room to breathe and keep lines from exceeding 80 characters. It's mainly a matter of preference. Since I'm reviewing this so you're stuck with my preference.

+                      (compiler (if target
+ (string-append target "-gcc")
+                                    "gcc")))
+                 `(#:phases
+                   (modify-phases %standard-phases
+ ;; We replace the configure phase in order to remove all the + ;; default flags. The configure script doesn't accept most
+                     ;; of the default flags

I shortened this to the last sentence and added a full stop here…

+                     (replace 'configure
+ (lambda* (#:key configure-flags #:allow-other-keys) + ;; The configure script can only be told which + ;; compiler to use through environment variables

…and here.  ;;-style comments are full sentences, unlike ;-ones.

+                     (add-before 'install 'fix-makefile
+ (lambda* (#:key outputs #:allow-other-keys) + ;; We can't chown to root as the chroot doesn't have + ;; this user. Also the store is owned by root so this
+                         ;; isn't necessary.

All true, but so common a change in Guix that it's not worth a comment.

+                         (substitute* "bsd.prog.mk"
+                           (("^\tchown.*$") "")))))

Phases need to end in truth so I've added a #t here. We get away without one in the previous phase because INVOKE itself is guaranteed to return #t.

+ #:configure-flags (list (string-append "--prefix=" %output) + (string-append "--target=" (or ,target ""))

It didn't look to me like this was used for anything, and quoting Morgan on IRC:

<butterypancake> ya, the configure script really doesn't do a damn thing with target. But in the future it might save someone some time.

+ ;; Compiler choice is not carried over from the configure script. + #:make-flags (list (string-append "CC=" ,compiler))

I agree that it's nice to save future maintainers the trouble of retracing your steps but don't like the idea of sleeper code. I'll keep them as comments.

+                   ;; There are no tests provided
+                   #:tests? #f)))

Changed to the equivalent but more conventional

        #:tests? #f)))                 ; no test suite

+    (native-inputs `(("bison" ,bison)))

Added a trivial newline before `.

+    (home-page "https://github.com/Duncaen/OpenDoas";)
+    (synopsis "Portable version of OpenBSD's doas command")
+ (description "Doas is a minimal replacement for the venerable sudo. It was +initially written by Ted Unangst of the OpenBSD project to provide 95% of the
+features of sudo with a fraction of the codebase.")

Thanks for including a multi-line description! Won't stop me from trying to expand it some more.

+    (license license:isc)))

Not surprisingly, libbsd/ is under a 3-clause BSD licence. I added it.

This would be a separate patch. However, this would install doas on almost all systems. I think the default list should contain only the minimal defaults, and I don't see doas being a must-have %base-package any time soon.

Kind regards,

T G-R
