Anyhow I understand that we need a LTS variant for GNU Health and other conservative users. We could create a „tryton-lts.scm“ which holds the LTS versions, inherited from the current release. Creating such a file is expected be to not much of a problem. WDYT? > The Tryton release process is explained in [2]. Normal releases have > one year of support, while LTS releases have 5 years.

So versions and hashes can be picked from there. Or even the tryton-scm at that version could be used as a base for tryton-lts.scm. Please also note: The packages can be kept up-to-date easily using my tooling at https://codeberg.org/htgoebel/tryton-guix-helpers (and the upcoming “refresh to version“ feature). -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | h.goebel@crazy-compilers.com | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible | ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
