Hi,

Applied. I followed up with cosmetic changes.
One question though:
> + (search-paths
> + (list (search-path-specification
> + (variable "TCLLIBPATH")
> + (separator " ")
> + (files (list (string-append "lib/tcltls" version))))))
This declaration most likely belongs in ‘tcl’ itself:
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Search-Paths.html
Most Tcl libraries that we have have that ‘search-paths’ declaration
though, and they would need to be fixed.
One problem is that they augment TCLLIBPATH not with a generic “lib/tcl”
(say) collection of directories, but instead with a package-specific
directory, like “lib/tcltls1.3”.
The solution would be to ensure that, instead, all these libraries
install their Tcl code in “lib/tcl” rather than “lib/PACKAGE”.
Since you’re into Tcl, would you like to give it a try? :-)
TIA,
Ludo’.
