However, there are some more serious GNOME problems that I would like to work on before worrying about the list of packages. Here are a couple of examples: =E2=80=A2 GNOME 3.30 does not use the right timezone =E2=80=A2 We are on GNOME 3.30 and not 3.32 =E2=80=A2 GNOME Shell will not use an upgraded application automatically In addition to these, there are still a number of GDM issues. Unfortunately, Guix currently has more things to work on than it does workers, which causes many little projects to fall by the wayside (at least for a while). It=E2=80=99s frustrating, sure, but it=E2=80=99s not u= ncommon for free software projects. -- Tim
