bug#42979: Some kde games are outdated

[Jesse Gibbons via Bug reports for GNU Guix]

The following KDE games fail to build:

kblocks
kdiamond
kigo
klines
kollision
lskat

The upstream git repositories all have tags for version 20.8.0, but 
there are no source tarballs in the mirrors.

Using Guix 3694c0d, the version is now 20.12.0 and
https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org provides all the substitutes.  Note that
“guix build --check” works fine too.

BTW, this

  $ guix gc -D $(guix build <pkg> -S)
  $ guix build <pkg> -S --no-substitutes

also works fine.  In my case, downloading from
<http://download.kde.org/stable/release-service/>.

Indeed the sources of 20.8.0 does not seem available upstream.
However, this version was not in Guix, AFAIK.  For instance,

  git log --grep=kigo

does not display a commit updating from 19.08.3 to 20.8.0.  The only
update is from 19.08.3 (d685f86054..f114a689e7) to 20.12.0
(908e48f7dd..3cd53b4500).  The version 19.08.3 seems removed from
upstream but we cannot do more; this source is still on ci.guix.gnu.org
and should be transparently available via Disarchive.

Well, I am in favor to close this bug.  WDYT?


All the best,
simon

I agree that this can be closed. lskat does not render properly, but 
that's a different issue.
