What you've done is to roll back your Guix to the 4-month-old version of Guix that the 'wip-libreoffice' branch was based on. The proper way would be to use 'git' to rebase that branch on our current master branch, and then use that. "guix pull" can't do that. > I'm asking this as I see a different behavior now > with `guix package -d' and `-i' for other packages now than before, > and a lot of building from source. That's probably because Hydra has long ago deleted the binaries from 4 months ago. Mark
