bug#50461: [core-updates-frozen] backtrace on `guix package -A'

[Sarah Morgensen]

Hello Guix,

I'm getting a backtrace on `guix package -A'.  The argument doesn't seem
to matter, and `guix package -s' works fine.

I believe rebuilding will fix it:

  rm gnu/packages/*.go && make -j4

The reason is that bindings of deprecated packages like
‘texlive-latex-hyperref’ changed from regular bindings to macros; here
Guile stumbles upon the macro at run time when it instead expects a
<package> record.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

That fixed it.  Sorry for the alarm!

(It seems that "make" for guix/guile is not very good at determining
what needs to be recompiled... this isn't the first time "make"
succeeded by still caused issues.)
