[bug#40105] [PATCH] gnu: Add wol.

[Vincent Legoll]

Hello,

I don't know if having multiple packages doing the same is OK or not.
Nor do I know if there are differences between this "wol" and the
already packaged "wakelan"...

I initially put it in networking whereas wakelen is in admin...

Anyways, I did the work, I tested it works by waking a suspended
odroidn2 SBC with it...

So here it is, tell me if it is redundant to the point of not being useful.

FTR, I packaged this because my initial guix search was with the words
wol and wakeonlan, which did not find anything relevant, whereas
searching with "wake" would have found it...

There are a few packages with WoL capability:

etherwake,

you can do it with netcat, etc...
