Hey Brett!

I think gnome is a similar sort of meta-package. It has the
following structure:
(define-public gnome
(package
(name "gnome")
(version (package-version gnome-shell))
(source #f)
(build-system trivial-build-system)
(arguments '(#:builder (begin (mkdir %output) #t)))
(propagated-inputs
... lots of inputs here ...)
(synopsis "The GNU desktop environment")
(home-page "https://www.gnome.org/")
(description
"GNOME is the graphical desktop for GNU. It includes a wide
variety of
applications for browsing the web, editing text and images,
creating
documents and diagrams, playing media, scanning, and much more.")

I assume that will work for you, too.
