Sounds great! My only real concern, as someone maintaining guix packages in Debian, is to make sure that we do not break compatibility with being able to use an older daemon, as Debian stable/bookworm is still at guix 1.4.x and it would be nice to not have to force people to manually upgrade the daemon (e.g. and even if a newer version lands in a future Debian stable release, in general it will stuck using that version for some years as well). I have noticed occasional issues with the Debian packages of guix having compatibility issues when newer versions of guile-git/libgit2, guile-ssh/libssh2, etc. get introduced, and wonder if the same would hold true of a daemon? In Guix, by design you wouldn't really notice these sorts of problems as it is always generally built with the current version, but Debian does rely on ABI compatibility for package upgrades... I might be able to keep better track of these types of issues in Debian, although various guile-* modules that depend on C libraries seem to avoid the normal detection mechanisms to trigger rebuilds in Debian. That is a bit of a tangent, but it reminded me about that issue... live well, vagrant --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEARYKAB0WIQRlgHNhO/zFx+LkXUXcUY/If5cWqgUCZQIF7QAKCRDcUY/If5cW qisXAQCoQFtT9pWj0yqTAfKfsTs2jNKqAhrPt7sUnA2rJSisWQEAu7mNlVCQ16p1 5at51DRjwgczy36a5HLab27y+UTSNgE= =kMk9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
