Oh my! I am a bit shocked by this honestly ... why is it treated as a minor security issue? I realize Guix is pretty niche in Debian... Nix is perhaps a little more widely used... For anyone with Guix or Nix installed, if I understand correctly, it basically allows arbitrarily replacing the source code for anything that you might build using Guix or Nix. > So can you submit it for the point releases?

I can... although, I would like to make a kind and freindly nudge to reconsider a DSA if at all possible. :) > Thanks a lot for your work! Likewise! live well, vagrant
