I'll have to look at what guix/gnu-maintenance.scm does, but: A couple years back, Brandon Invergo started migrating from gnupackages.txt to a new recutils format (rec/gnupackages.rec). This unfortunately required us to maintain two separate files. Rather than get rid of gnupackages.txt completely, I wrote a script last week to generate it from rec/gnupackages.rec. The formats are largely the same---it's possible that you can use the recfile directly. However, if you still need the old format, just run `make gnupackages.txt`. Lmk if that works for you. In the future, if you have problems with gnumaint in womb, please email maintainers@gnu.org; this message just happened to catch my eye. -- Mike Gerwitz Free Software Hacker+Activist | GNU Maintainer & Volunteer GPG: D6E9 B930 028A 6C38 F43B 2388 FEF6 3574 5E6F 6D05 https://mikegerwitz.com
