Hi!
I just had a brain wave and couldn’t resist: commit ef010c0 changes
‘guix package --install’ such that, when installing a GNU package, it
automatically reports the availability of a new upstream version.
So, for instance, if you run it today:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix package -i idutils -n
[nothing special here]
$ ./pre-inst-env guix package -i gettext -n
gnu/packages/gettext.scm:27:3: note: using gettext-0.18.1.1 but
gettext-0.18.2.1 is available upstream
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This works well with GNU packages, but breaks other packages:
$ ./pre-inst-env ./scripts/guix package -i w3m
