;;; To avoid circular dependencies, this module should not be imported

+;;; Below, we frequently use "inherit" to create modified packages. The
+;;; reason why we use "inherit" instead of "package/inherit" is because we do
+;;; not want these commencement packages to inherit grafts. By definition,
+;;; these packages are not depended on at run time by any of the packages we
+;;; use. Thus it does not make sense to inherit grafts. Furthermore, those
+;;; grafts would often lead to extra overhead for users who would end up
+;;; downloading those "-boot0" packages just to build package replacements
+;;; that are in fact not going to be used.
