[PATCH] gnu: perl-text-diff: Update perl-text-diff.

[PATCH] gnu: perl-text-diff: Update perl-text-diff.

[Alex Sassmannshausen]

Hello,

This patch updates perl-text-diff.  The URL had to be changed as it seems it
has a new maintainer.

I'm working out my tooling for a largish number of patches I'm about to send,
so please let me know if there is anything I can do to make handling my
patches easier.

As part of this process I'm also changing my subscription email address.  As I
had sent this patch previously from this email, when I was not yet subscribed
to the mailing list with this email address, this patch may eventually turn up
twice.

Apologies for this.

Best wishes,

Alex

BTW, I have a WIP cpan updater for 'guix refresh'.  If you're interested 
in trying it out I can post a patch.  Home-page/source URL changes seem 
to be something that happens semi-regularly on CPAN, but AFAIK our 
updater framework cannot handle such things.

Awesome!  Somehow I thought we already had it.

Indeed.  We could/should change ‘update-package-source’ in (guix
upstream) to update not only the version number and hash, but also the
URL.
