Your first commit message is flawless; congratulations! :-)

However, [how] did you install and test this package?  This:

+    (source (origin
+         (method git-fetch)
+         (uri (string-append 
"https://github.com/alerque/libertinus/";
+                                  "commit/"
+ 
"800155085d4a1592dc6e76b34cd625794cd0fcdf"))
+         (sha256
+          (base32 
"1mj0d84k1x15hsgksca0qjhc3mmzyaqaqa2vyrbb6s96ycsfsgq3"))))

isn't a valid GIT-FETCH origin:

I replaced it with:

+    (source
+     (origin
+       (method git-fetch)
+       (uri (git-reference
+             (url "https://github.com/alerque/libertinus";)
+             (commit (string-append "v" version))))
+       (sha256
+   (base32 
"0flj3xwj8x938wh614ch295j040ccnha1nzmlg5sgpsyxg5gjsbf"))))

Note the ‘commit’ that isn't.

If you're lucky (which is most of the time), upstream will tag 
releases & you won't need to hard-code the commit.  This makes 
updating the package later much easier.

I don't know GitHub well enough to link to it directly, but you 
can find a list of tags under the top-left ‘Branch: main’ 
drop-down here[0].

Now I get an encoding error which is probably not your ‘fault’… 
Guile can be picky when it comes to locales.  I'll poke at it some 
more.

Kind regards,

T G-R
