I am not sure to understand.
Is the bioconductor importer usable from `guix import` ?

I have tried once by hand; to understand step by step. :-)
Thank Pierre for the nice tutorial !
see the package definition below.

Ok, even if I have no clue to work around.



So as I need the FlowCore package to process data from cytometry, let
start my first attempt with this one. :-)

This package is on Bioconductor:
https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/flowCore.html
Then define the package by hand was straightforward! :-)
I am not sure to be compliant... Basically, I have just copied/pasted
the modules from bioinformatics.scm (or bioconductor.scm), then I have
look for if the dependency was already there. Missing r-corpcor from
CRAN, so `guix import cran`.

Hum, the package BiocGenerics needs the version >= 0.1.14, and it is
not defined in the package.
Then, the package grDevices, graphics, methods, stats, stats4 are
required (see bioconductor webpage) but not defined elsewhere. Is it
good ?

What is the convention about license ?
(license name) or (license license:name)

Well, then I have run guix package --install-from-file=my.scm and it
seems to works, I mean the first examples from the vignette do not
complain. ;-)


Thank you for any comment.


All the best
simon

Strimmer (2007) <DOI:10.2202/1544-6115.1252>.  The approach is both
computationally as well as statistically very efficient, it is
applicable to \"small n, large p\" data, and always returns a positive
definite and well-conditioned covariance matrix.  In addition to
inferring the covariance matrix the package also provides shrinkage
estimators for partial correlations and partial variances.  The
inverse of the covariance and correlation matrix can be efficiently
computed, as well as any arbitrary power of the shrinkage correlation
matrix.  Furthermore, functions are available for fast singular value
decomposition, for computing the pseudoinverse, and for checking the
rank and positive definiteness of a matrix.")
