The source derivation fails to build for me:

Also, as suggested by ‘guix lint’, please add a comment at the top
stating what this does and what the upstream status is (if it’s been
submitted), at least something like:

  Tweak build system to use system dependencies instead of those that
  are bundled.

Could you please send an updated patch?

Thanks!

Ludo’.
