The emacs-yaml package is configured to build against emacs-minimal, which seems to work. When you however switch to emacs package, it takes way to long to build, much longer than compiling for example firefox package. That feels off.

The difference is huge. The process taking vast majority of the time
(in the emacs version) is this one:

I do not know enough to even guess what could be the problem, but it was
suggested I should bug-report this.
