Hey,
So, given that core-updates was recently merged, I guess it's time to
start the branch again?
I've got two patches in mind, [1] for parallel xz compression during the
unpack phase if the build is happening in parallel, and [2] to enable
p11-kit in gnutls.
1: https://issues.guix.info/issue/33643
2: https://issues.guix.info/issue/40654
There's also updating Ruby to 2.7 which can at least be considered for
core-updates, I've seen some 2.7 incompatibilities in various Ruby
libraries, but it's worth looking at.
The above patches could do with a bit more review, but is there any
formalities in terms of getting core-updates going again?
Thanks,
Chris

For [2], you could define a 'gnutls+p11-kit' and use that in libcacard
for now, instead of having to wait N months for the branch to start
rolling (during which time things may change in libcacard or GnuTLS).

Maybe we should have a 'package-with-ruby27' procedure, similar to
'package-with-python2'? Then we don't need to wait for core-updates to
try this either. :-)

The job specification needs to be re-added on Cuirass, but other than
that it should be "safe to push".
