TODO:

  • while it uses a configure script and builds as an AutotoolsPackage (spack create set it up this way), it is not truly an Autotools package. Should I redo it as a Package instead?

    Switched to using Package.


Adds a package for the portable OpenBSD version of mg. mg is a gnu-emacs-ified version of the micro-emacs editor.

Small, fast, quick-starting editor with gnu-emacs compat. key bindings.

Should I redo it as a Package instead?

Yes, we may someday add Autotools-specific flags to AutotoolsPackage. You can still define 3 phases, phases = ['configure', 'build', 'install'].

Switch from AutotoolsPackage to Package.  Even though mg has a
configure script, it's not really an Autotools package.
