No problem :)

I forgot to design that part, but I'd try appending a text like "This 
package is part of GNU" to the package description, and maybe adding a 
translucent GNU head in the background of the package box (top-right).

I designed an alternative representation of build status. It is in 
designs/packages.svg, but here is an image:

Then I'd remove them from the main menu and the packages sidebar for now.

I'd love to apply the missing changes myself, but I'm currently lacking 
a guix-enabled computer. But, yes, I think these things should not stop 
a website update.


P. S.: I hope the new code was not a pain in the neck deal with. I'm 
sorry if it is :P
