Thank you.

I normalized the commit message, fixed some issues with your patch,and
applied it.

There are whitespace issues in your email.

The parenthesis are off and as such the package cannot build properly.

The hash was wrong, so I updated it.

I added a comment explaining why (in a way…) tests couldn't be run.

I also made the process build shared library instead of static one.

I fixed indentation and tweaked description a bit.

The above should have been (license license:public-domain)

>From the Guix repository, you can try building your package with
"./pre-inst-env guix build biblesync". You will be able to catch most of
the mistakes above.
