Hi Hartmut,

This one is nice and smaller than ‘ls-lR’.  I reimplemented the GNU
updater in terms of this file, and kept the previous FTP-based updater
around for GNU packages not hosted on ftp.gnu.org:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=100b216d8a4218daec4a79024d62d54b52dc07be

“guix refresh -t gnu” is now much faster.

The next step may be to have a more-or-less generic updater based on
‘ls-lR’ files.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
