Hi Petter, Sounds like a good idea.

The only question here before we can apply is how much gets rebuilt as a consequence of this change. Changing openssl would rebuild too much for instance, so that would go to the ‘core-updates’ branch. The rest looks OK for master, but could you check with ‘guix refresh -l’ and submit separate patches accordingly? See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-10/msg00933.html> on how to choose a branch. Thank you! Ludo’.
