The patch below should do what is says... I needed to add the flags in two places, actually. Can I push it? Andreas * guix/build-system/perl.scm (perl-build): Add support for variables parallel-build? and parallel-tests?. * guix/build-system/gnu.scm (gnu-build): Add a line break for clarity.

guix.el vs. Emacs packages

2014-08-27 Thread Ludovic Courtès
