Subject: [bug#39240] [PATCH 2/2] gnu: Add megatools.
Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2020 16:20:00 +0100

* gnu/packages/crypto.scm (megatools): New variable.
  (megacmd)[description]: Cross-reference the two packages in the description.
  (megacmd)[license]: Use a more syntax form for multiple licenses.
---
Note: sending this to the same bug as the packages are related and would
ideally reference each other in their descriptions, which makes merging
the patches interdependent.

I am updating the license field here, as suggested by guix lint - I
somehow forgot to run it before. I added the possibility of creating a
pre-commit hook for this to my TODO.

[this note shouldn't interfere with git am]
