Maybe to fix the $HOME issues by including a phase to set environment 
variables during testing as in e.g. blast+ ? i.e.

(setenv "HOME" "/tmp")

Is there a reason to include 'patch' as a native-dependency, rather than 
include them in the origin in 'patches' as usual?

I'm left confused why the mix tests fail. If they run git say, git is 
present and able to be used. Why doesn't it find it if it is in the 
PATH? Is it because it attempts to use the network?

Thanks for your work on this and please excuse any naivety as I am 
completely ignorant of elixir.
