Subject: [PATCH 0/6] gnu: emacs-xyz: Add info manuals of packages

I noticed that a few packages had info manuals in their repositories, but they
were not installed by Guix. This patch series updates the existing definions
to add those Info manuals, and adds a few similar packages.

1) The .info files were generated from .org files in the repository and I
   attempted to install them through this command:

   "emacs --batch --eval=(require 'ox-texinfo) --eval=(find-file \"README.org\") --eval=(org-texinfo-export-to-info)"

   Is there a better way for this?

2) modus-themes is a part of emacs (since v28 iirc), would the info manual of
   emacs-modus-themes take precedence of the info manual provided with emacs?

Thanks.

Jai Vetrivelan (6):
  gnu: Add emacs-logos.
  gnu: Add emacs-pulsar.
  gnu: Add emacs-lin.
  gnu: Add emacs-tmr.
  gnu: emacs-modus-themes: Add Info manual.
  gnu: emacs-mct: Add Info manual.

There is emacs-batch-eval in (guix build emacs-utils), which is already
part of the emacs-build-system imports.  This currently appears to only
affect six packages, but if that's a trend we might want to offer a
build phase for it.  Note that the default include regexp already
contains "\\.info$", so you only need to build it.

That'd probably depend on the ordering.  I'm not sure if installing
modus-themes on top of 28 is even expected, but whatever floats your
boat, I guess.
