* gnu/packages/linux.scm (acpilight): New variable.

Maxime,

Thanks for the review.  I should have re-read this old package more throughly,
I have fixed what you pointed out:
- using gexp in arguments field
- don't returning #t in phases
- adding coreutils-minimal to inputs

As for the odd make-flags, this is because of the uncanonical Makefile¹ of
acpilight, It don't build with an empty DESTDIR.

Cheers,
- Brice
