distro: Go for one module per package.
The alternative, which was to use one module per category, would probably not scale well. First, because many packages could fall into several categories (does GnuTLS go into "networking", "security", or "libraries"?). Second, because that could easily lead to circular dependencies among modules ("security" and "networking" depend on each other, etc.) * distro/packages/databases.scm: Rename to... * distro/packages/recutils.scm: ... this. * distro/packages/typesetting.scm: Rename to... * distro/packages/lout.scm: ... this. * Makefile.am (MODULES): Adjust accordingly. * po/POTFILES.in: Likewise.

+"The Lout document formatting system is now reads a high-level description of
+a document similar in style to LaTeX and produces a PostScript or plain text
+output file.
+
+Lout offers an unprecedented range of advanced features, including optimal
+paragraph and page breaking, automatic hyphenation, PostScript EPS file
+inclusion and generation, equation formatting, tables, diagrams, rotation and
+scaling, sorted indexes, bibliographic databases, running headers and
+odd-even pages, automatic cross referencing, multilingual documents including
+hyphenation (most European languages are supported), formatting of computer
+programs, and much more, all ready to use. Furthermore, Lout is easily
+extended with definitions which are very much easier to write than troff of
+TeX macros because Lout is a high-level, purely functional language, the
+outcome of an eight-year research project that went back to the
+beginning.")
