Sure, no problem.

Thanks for this hint, as I'm new to Scheme, my knowledge of its standard
library is still pretty limited. The negate function is quite useful.

I get the following numbers:

 graph dune-geometry | grep 'label =' | wc -l
 70

 guix graph dune-geometry-openmpi | grep 'label =' | wc -l
 143

 guix graph openmpi | grep 'label =' | wc -l
 137

The difference seems to be OK: 143 - 70 = 73 < 137.

I'll send the updated patch ASAP.
