Ah! I was asking the question some time ago, and thought Guix was still on 2.22. We can easily upgrade to 2.23 and 2.24 as needed, we already have the required changes in Debian. > and we’d prefer to have the same version on both GNU/Linux and > GNU/Hurd, modulo the Hurd-specific patches. Sure! And Debian has the same issue. I'd say we'd keep the hurd glibc and libpthread repositories to the lowest version of Guix and Debian (i.e. 2.23 ATM). We can store patches for next versions in separate branches (see e.g. master-glibc-2.23 in libpthread). Samuel
