Thanks for this patch Stefan! I have some comments...

I noticed the latest upstream release is tagged "v1.0" rather than
"0.1". Also, it's convenient and more maintainable to create the version
of Git-based packages like this:

(version (git-version "1.0" revision commit))

> +                (file-name (string-append name "-" version "-checkout"))

And similarly for the file-name:

(file-name (git-file-name name version))

Those two procedures come from (guix git-download).

I guess that changing the build directory and chmod-ing those files are
required for their own reasons, right? So they should be in separate
build phases.

Can you send an updated patch?
