The whole "I am finite" thing. There are a number of projects (like shepherd) which are also setup to function as a channel. And Guix has the ability for channels to depend on other channels. So it would be possible to create a package in a channel which depended on a specific branch (or commit) of shepherd as it appeared upstream. Is that the type of thing you mean? --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --L/kQ0Ltb5PCAwXv6 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEEoov0DD5VE3JmLRT3Qarn3Mo9g1EFAmc8aDwACgkQQarn3Mo9 g1GHgw/9EUs3sxzjBBuUPQXLPwn0o/rpXEMpX1LOq3sUz0YiZnj9KNw8OFG02add PI3khkokxyeKYYuxNfrurEt8GVXUHgazj/gg83coxMY+3ud57b/Ss+M+KxM55v93 1eadNnpYUrrRIFYGbFYpniHE65rcp1x7gxhmdftZlISL2+pkEo8dHVjE/mrUmX9a 8pGzsglBSFGpdyPg79UgHurpRHwhbNvX5FRll6C9wie2uSirl9XAka7eKGMhUkBK GKH5/Gf1Vj7H1obLFRblLZhlAAFwpm8p/7sIJTSqn+vXS0umzVQdrPRYGXJPAHvX 15grhyIF6VrjrchHJyhBauQVBXjm2Xn9hZC+RZlhmR+8W2CQRU1iKwzaXfaEEP4h w2FSinSpPAwh5lS5Nbq64UmA8izxnzGe1t/39PASNOXSBdFf6qkwP8mbC8pwTDje qOkgq9kp21+BmJzsukWyQLBN0qRbujmjHh7Cns/4G1+20isyS8+1cExA6YhGYF56 q+uKjwFbRttYvpQxXEe8P7NVi3Y9pF5R4NMk/VHqkNq5KRLcqWua0RO+IUwUWmVN foI4cqJg5k/G6k/aXY3R9KLiqzS3pyzUDwGWJw82f/4clRbWa+EUZbHhRE43Gsok v9hIf57C0wOB3D923LBc5fzsgXJr7nnWwJVRNOAtayQ77r8pfI4= =322M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --L/kQ0Ltb5PCAwXv6--
