what do you mean by this? Modules can have a dependency circle.
And I do not find dfrotz among our packages, just frotz-dumb-terminal.

Oh, I guess I was mistaken. I thought package modules wouldn't load properly if there was a cycle, since I was bitten by a strange error related to that a long time ago.

I'll send a revised patch later that runs the tests (frotz-dumb-terminal provides dfrotz).

In a different issue someone pointed me to this:
   https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Cyclic-Module-Dependencies.html

So they can be a bit tricky, but are not a problem for any kinds of
inputs. The example in the documentation of inheritance is a common
case where there is a problem.
