It's great to have a recipe `that works', so thanks! However, whether or not we automate this, I cannot help to wonder if we should support downgrading -- at least to the previous version in this case? If I'm not mistaken, everything else in GuixSD will run if I select a previous system generation in Grub...except for this? Is involving postgres developers an option, I'm sure a least one of the postgresql hackers[cc] are already looking at Guix[SD]?
