Subject: guix installation age warning sometimes wrong
Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2017 13:06:19 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <150091597988.31085.1323099914257477602@x220> (raw)

About 125 days ago, I updated my root profile's ".config/guix/latest"
symlink to point to my primary user's guix package definitions:
# ls -l /root/.config/guix/latest
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Mar 21 15:00 /root/.config/guix/latest -> /home/sankey/.config/guix/latest
I did this because I didn't want to run `guix pull` twice every time,
once as root and once as my normal user. Since then I've been keeping
up to date, running `guix pull` frequently as my normal user.
But now when I invoke guix as root, it constantly tells me:
guix package: warning: Your Guix installation is 125 days old.
guix package: warning: Consider running 'guix pull' followed by
'guix package -u' to get up-to-date packages and security updates.
...presumably because it's reading the mtime/ctime on the symlink. Is
there a more precise way to asses the age of the guix installation
symlink?
Troy
