website: packages: Update TODO related to bug #25227.
The reason the commented builders are not used is not really the bug in Haunt, which is already fixed,ยน but the limitations of the CVS repository. * apps/packages/builder.scm (builder): Update TODO. 1. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-user/2017-12/msg00070.html

- ;; BUG: These builders are commented out because of a bug using dots
- ;; in directory names:
;;
- ;; https://bitbucket.org/sirgazil/guixsd-website/issues/47/
+ ;; These provisional builders are used because of a limitation of
+ ;; the CVS repository used for deploying the website. The idea is
+ ;; to have "package list" and "package detail" pages as proposed
+ ;; in Guix bug #25227. This, however, would generate thousands of
+ ;; pages that could choke the current CVS repository.
;;
- ;; However, they build the pages that implement the latest design
- ;; proposed for the website in Guix(SD) bug #26006.
+ ;; When this limitation is gone, the following builders should be
+ ;; used instead. They should generate pages as those described in
+ ;; the proposal.
