+Julia packages require the source @code{file-name} to be the real name of the

+
+For packages requiring shared library dependencies, you may need to write the
+@file{/deps/deps.jl} file manually. It's usually a line of @code{const
+variable = /gnu/store/libary.so} for each dependency, plus a void function
+@code{check_deps() = nothing}.
+
+Some older packages that aren't using @file{Package.toml} yet, will require
+this file to be created, too. The function @code{julia-create-package-toml}
+helps creating the file. You need to pass the outputs and the source of the

+uuid, the package version, and a list of dependencies specified by their name
