This response is what native English speakers call a "red herring"
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_herring>: something that misleads or
distracts from a relevant or important question.

Why do I say that?  As I pointed out elsewhere in this thread,

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-04/msg00366.html

it appears that Raghav didn't actually remove the security fixes; it
appears that *you* did.  Therefore, I fail to see how it could have been
avoided by asking Raghav to do another rebase.

From the IRC logs cited in the message above, it appears that you took
the liberty of modifying Raghav's "cosmetic changes" commits to also
remove security fixes in the re-indented packages, while claiming in the
summary lines that you were "ungraft[ing]" cairo and glib.

  https://git.sr.ht/~lle-bout/guix/commit/6477daa338fbf1c9edacfc3690aca77cacfe0008

Can you please explain what went wrong here?

      Thanks,
        Mark
