Hi Pierre,

infinite pages.

which I believe could be used if the search functionality is incorporated
there.

I used the same format as this page: https://guix.gnu.org/packages/, so I
guess the alteration you mentioned should be discussed with the
person/people who designed it. :)

that could be fixed.
Again, I have cc-ed Chris who could give a better response on that. :)

Thank you for the feedback,

Danjela
