    (description
     "Nickle is a programming language based prototyping environment with
powerful programming and scripting capabilities.  Nickle supports a variety of
datatypes, especially arbitrary precision numbers.  The programming language
vaguely resembles C.  Some things in C which do not translate easily are
different, some design choices have been made differently, and a very few
features are simply missing.  Nickle provides the functionality of Unix bc, dc
and expr in a different form.  It is also an ideal environment for prototyping
complex algorithms.  Nickle's scripting capabilities make it a replacement for
spreadsheets in some applications, and its numeric features complement the
limited numeric functionality of text-oriented languages such as AWK and Perl.")

<td><a href='/guix/commit/manifest.scm?id=9af235335e8f8baf7f434a76570a954999231879'>gnu: guix: Remove unnecessary dependencies.</a><span class='msg-avail'>...<span class='msg-tooltip'>This reverts 0fda0486523d67c2c464386c07a0c2800d8d8c20, instead moving
the dependencies needed for ‘make dist’ to ‘manifest.scm’.

Removing this extra dependencies make it simpler to build the ‘guix’
package in particular on less-capable systems like i586-gnu.

* gnu/packages/package-management.scm (guix)[native-inputs]: Remove
IMAGEMAGICK and PERL.  Use GRAPHVIZ-MINIMAL instead of GRAPHVIZ.
* manifest.scm: Use the full-blown ‘graphviz’ package; add ‘imagemagick’
and ‘perl’.
