<jmd>I don't understand why it would be even noticed, since it is not in gnu-system.am <mark_weaver>that only affects what "make" does. guix looks in all <DIR>/gnu/package/*.scm files, where <DIR> is in your guile load path. <jmd>So what is make needed for? <mark_weaver>well, 'make' is needed to build the .go files and install everything. <mark_weaver>for users who don't want to run out of their git source tree. <jmd>Oh. So if I'm doing it from git, I don't actually need it? <mark_weaver>well, you still need to build some other things, but you don't strictly need to build the .go files using "make". guile will automatically build them and put them in ~/.cache/guile/ccache/ *civodul was committing in the wrong branch <jmd>It would be useful to have an option like -K which kept the build directory even if successfull
