Oh, we should really work towards unbundling things from =E2=80=98go-ipfs= =E2=80=99.

Now they have hundreds with go-1.11 :( =E2=80=9Cguix size syncthing=E2=80=9D, for instance, returns mostly tiny Go= packages, which looks good to me, no? Anyway, if you think there=E2=80=99s a problem, could you email details to bug-guix@gnu.org so we keep track of it there? Thanks! Ludo=E2=80=99.
