What do you mean? That parallel-build has to be turned off for the
master branch?
I actually noticed that running `make -j5` locally, the build fails at
the `temacs` step. The build succeeds with `make`.
That said, I tried running
guix build --keep-failed --with-source=ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-26.1-rc1.tar.xz emacs
It fails with
starting phase `check'
make -C lib all
make info-real info-dir
You do not seem to have the test/ directory.
Maybe you are using a release tarfile, rather than a repository checkout.
make: *** [Makefile:937: have-tests] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
Why should it fail if it's a tarball? The error message seems that it
understands precisely what we are trying to do.
