Primary category: networking-client
Tags: historical-computing, pdp-10, terminal-ui
Primary language normalized: C
Build system: gnu-build-system
SPDX expression: NOASSERTION
License status: no-permission
License evidence: No explicit project-wide free redistribution license was found in the upstream metadata/tree.
Difficulty: blocked — COPYING is a redistribution-permission email and not a project-wide free license grant.
Workflow state: blocked
Existing Guix coverage: Checked 2026-08-14: GNU Guix, Nonguix, Guix Science, Guix HPC, Guix Past, Guix 'R Us, and RDE; no equivalent package with the same upstream origin was found.

Scope and blockers

Package the client only, excluding optional supdupd server, after clear licensing is obtained.

Acceptance checks

guix lint -L. <package-name> and guix build -L. <package-name> pass once a package definition exists.
Build and run the client usage path without making a network connection.
