I know hello requieres certain dependencies that make it very heavy to download them. Perhaps these will be part of the big weight of the whole. How much does the whole GuixSD package repository weigh? How can it be calculated without downloading everything? --=20 Example of rude top posting: A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
