Hi Ricardo


I have a small doubt regarding the build. Let me explain the process i
am doing the build.

1) Cloning the Source

2) Running guix environment guix

3) ./bootstrap

4) ./configure --localstatedir=/var

5) make

6) Make Changes to the cran.scm file

7) Build using  ./pre-inst-env guix build <package>

8) If build is success, format the patch and submit the patch

*When i am planning to write a different package description, i am
following this*

9) rebasing the patch

10) Pull for any changes

11) running the process from (2)


Am i doing the right way, I hope i have to compile everytime and then
make changes each Package Description. Because when i tired to just make
changes and build on old one, i got many errors and warning saying the
.go file is older than the .scm.


Please suggest me.
