In the Guix distribution packaging is it is very easy to pull a library fro= m a git repository, as well as automatically check for updates, whereas the= re is not tooling to scan a wiki page and try to figure what are the correc= t files and whether the library has changed recently. I'm sure this is why = the Guix emacs-bookmark-plus package depends on the out-of-date GitHub mirr= or. I think the wiki itself is a git repository, but even if one wanted to = download the whole wiki, the library files are not sequestered into some di= stinct directory where they are easy for the tooling to deal with. You could of course say that people are free to mirror the files themselves= if they want to, but that brings us back to where we are now =E2=80=94 a m= irror that has not been kept up-to-date. --=20 Christopher Howard
