Hi,
While trying to install Nomad, the emacsy-minimal packages fails to
build.

Since emacsy-minimal uses the gnu-build-system, I thought that
`autoreconf` would already be available in the build environment, no?
I was able to reproduce this with:
$ guix time-machine --commit=bc10203 -- build emacsy-minimal
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks for the explanation!

Great, it works for me too. Would you mind sending the patch to the
guix-patches mailing list?
