Other said, =E2=80=9Cguix graph=E2=80=9D should help to m= anipulate the graph of > packages. I don=E2=80=99t think so. One reason is that =E2=80=98guix lint=E2=80=99 is really a generic tool for= package developers that happens to include a =E2=80=98cve=E2=80=99 checker; apart f= rom that, it=E2=80=99s not designed for CVE handling. More importantly, =E2=80=98guix health=E2=80=99 needs info not available in= the output of =E2=80=98guix lint=E2=80=99: it needs the CPE name of each package in th= e graph, along with the list of known-fixed CVEs. >> Fundamentally, that means we cannot reliably tell much about >> dependencies: in cases where the CPE name differs from the Guix name, we >> won=E2=80=99t have any match, and more generally, we cannot know what CV= E are >> patched in the package; we could infer part of this by looking at the >> same-named package in the current Guix, but that=E2=80=99s hacky. >> >> I think that longer-term we probably need to attach this kind of >> meta-data to packages themselves, by adding a bunch of files in each >> package, say under PREFIX/guix.
