Re: [PATCH] gnu: Add nyx.

[contact.ng0@cryptolab.net]

There should be a cover letter... but I hope gnu.org just keeps
it and I don't see it here.

Thing is, tests are broken and their custom install phase is
broken too. I think Efraim has experience in fixing tor software
and it would be great if this doesn't fall into branch-sleep for
weeks or months here on my side.
