Re: How to get the package metadata as structured data?

Hi Philippe, Thank you for your interest in guix =) All package metadata can be accessed easily through scheme. There is no way to export this data currently, although it probably wouldn't be too hard to implement. The approach I was planning on taking is the following: Take a package, remove al
