Hi Maxim,

Unless I’m mistaken, this will have practically no effect because Patch
is a build-time-only dependency.
My recommendation would be to not add a ‘replacement’ field at all.
Instead, you could add a new ‘patch/latest’ public variable pointing to
that commit that you picked. That way, users running ‘guix install
patch’ or similar will get the latest version of Patch.
On the next ‘core-packages-team’ cycle, we’d update Patch to refer to
that commit.
WDYT?
Ludo’.
