Vincent,

* gnu/packages/engineering.scm (efi_analyzer): New variable.

Neat!

 gnu/packages/engineering.scm | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I failed to see any connection to engineering and moved this to efi.scm.

Don't forget to add or update your copyright line.

+      (source (origin
+                (method git-fetch)
+                (uri (git-reference
+ (url "https://github.com/xypron/efi_analyzer";)
+                      (commit commit)))
+                (sha256
+ (base32 "1izdkzybqyvzpzqz6kx4j7y47j6aa2dsdrychzgs65466x1a4br1"))

I added a newline after ‘source’ to give this 81-character line some breathing room.

URLs, snippets, ... can grow wide and a few columns can save a pointless string-append or newlines.

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

This can be done with the

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

helper.

+      (arguments
+       `(#:phases
+         (modify-phases %standard-phases
+           (delete 'configure))

Not a comment on your patch, but I added a ‘support-cross-compilation’ phase here that replaces the Makefile's hard-coded ‘gcc’ so you can inspect EFI binaries on your cross-compiled ARM box.

+ #:make-flags (list "prefix=" (string-append "DESTDIR=" (assoc-ref %outputs "out")))))

The other way 'round: set $prefix (or the BSD variant $PREFIX) to the destination, and never set DESTDIR unless you're working around a bug in a broken build system.

DESTDIR is for distributions/builds using a temporary ‘staging’ destination directory. Guix doesn't.

+    (description
+ "The EFI Analyzer can be used to check EFI binaries and to print out header
+and section information.")

Slash empty ‘x can y’ (or ‘x allows the user to y’) filler with gleeful prejudice.

Pushed with these changes as 373f808df229c12101301b766bd1810836b98481.

Thanks!
