Hi Guix,

On the current core-updates branch, font-gnu-freefont fails to build with 
the attatched build log.

Based on the messages about syntax errors, it looks like gnu-freefont is 
not compatible with python3, and instead needs python2.

However, we already try to do this in the package definition:

;; replace python 3 with python 2
;; python 3 support commits aren't yet released in 20120503
;; so freefont needs python 2 support in fontforge
(native-inputs `(("fontforge" ,(package (inherit fontforge)
                                  (inputs `(("python-2" ,python-2)
                                  ,@(package-inputs fontforge)))))))


Best,
Jack
