Maybe what you can do, then, is report each issue to bug-guix@gnu.org separately and provide guidance for the GRUB side of things: what should the generated =E2=80=98grub.cfg=E2=80=99 look like after each of these poin= ts is addressed? In return, an experienced Guix person can provide guidance on the Guix side of things so we converge towards an actual patch set. Deal? :-) Ludo=E2=80=99.
