You so frequently notice these things, it almost seems like you're omniscient! Do you have an automated mechanism for doing this, or are you manually checking things frequently? We should all be able to do this, but I suspect some people (myself included) are not sure how to do it. If you could share any tips, that'd be really nice. Here's an example of what I mean: Mark H Weaver writes: > Hi Tobias, > > me@tobias.gr (Tobias Geerinckx-Rice) writes: > >> nckx pushed a commit to branch master >> in repository guix. >> >> commit 906f1b48e20a032c22a164c89f9e8862ab2bec7a >> Author: Tobias Geerinckx-Rice >> Date: Wed Jan 3 09:01:53 2018 +0100 >> >> gnu: luajit: Update to 2.1.0-beta3. >>=20=20=20=20=20 >> * gnu/packages/lua.scm (luajit): Update to 2.1.0-beta3. >> [source]: Remove symlinks patch. >> * gnu/packages/patches/luajit-symlinks.patch: Delete file. >> * gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Remove it. > > This seems to have broken the 'love' package, which uses luajit. > > https://hydra.gnu.org/build/2488685 > > Would you be willing to investigate? > > Mark > =2D-=20 Chris --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEy/WXVcvn5+/vGD+x3UCaFdgiRp0FAlp/iTgACgkQ3UCaFdgi Rp1/3xAAqrPmWjI+4eKGH9yTc5vCFkHpZiijtvOFz+1sxUZUK+teDi5lgDuCsGba 5TSitQ6QI8gxNiepmKviMaURhq7GlqOIr8GTjgFCkv6oSj4RpXrF1eJz6oo9C6mf zhRzEHuH8Y6dCXnsStaz5ssTj5Qb95sNe/Qfd66XsHXinGgj8Em7+AJXKqp+t4du bDReWc6/J40/YYEh1UXBNSDoI7i62+VmSJ+x3xWtd7uSIIie7USYtNaX1fNAm1Xf 1MXO6ilDHCGKrhsAdi2NcK/B6jA40S6VI65uJ3lAznrJb2yWDLgtxubvB6MccMII n7o0dLdLftEDl8LST5D1IwIVYp9KlvA8zTA2FLRc4YtvSaIVoyUqiaqDnMTfOr+c r/b4ackMfKaVgxQpyH8f2NvOrn76L5KfLxaHEbOpXrT0n4juhDHKeMalQ4jGNdQ1 8Y+Qx6j4NuBe9bIJDrG1UBJeWXvs59WipGwqbqvH94wNduxmCTgY0yiE2b4GnznL /UbzS1sRXse08/5YCfKgzVTItJGdmT/pVMrA9HmeQYDBuByS+CNR5xgAZHFJu83P z8v9O0oMTeJ4Q7HMls+kWyv6VSr00mi1LaAFFsV+EwMyKjICyTwEoy8nxmoisrY3 +cThtcAfJ+L7sKrW9QAqP0gpDwldk8Tn0wAHBdXk853nM6itH0E= =VzIf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
