For packages sumbitted to Guix but not merged yet, a comment for the
corresponding debbugs link is given (And those packages would be removed once
merged).
For packages already exist in Guix, however with a newer version or not
available in master branch at the moment, a version suffix is added to their
variable names, e.g. =foo-1.14.514= (while the package name is still =foo=),
these packages would be removed once they are available in Guix's master
branch.
For packages sourced on a not-released-yet checkout, a "dev" suffix is added
to both their variable and package names, e.g. both variable name and package
name are =bar-dev=. For revisions, the result of =git describe --tags= is
generally used. If upstream didn't tag version, tag it first, otherwise when
no version could be found, start the revision from "0".
For packages with special features, a suffix to both variable and package name
is added.
e.g. =hello/static= (while with package name =hello-static=), =test-minimal=,
=halo-nox= (without X), =nya-sans-whatever= (with whatever features disabled).
