Hello Katherine and Ludovic,
I've finally had the time to push the patches[0], my house was hit hard by
sickness.
Concerning having Go 1.18 as the default version, I think it's on Ludovic
side to create a
branch to see where things breaks..
Not sure where the outputs will be but I am sure we wil

Hello,
I've looked a bit more in detail on the Go package definition, Maybe we
should rethink how we are building the Go package in guix?
If I understand correctly, the current bootstrap chain is the following.

Hello,
I am trying to update Go to 1.18, I do have a *working* patch that defines
a package that inherits from 1.17 and that adjusts the inputs. However, I
have a few questions:
1. Is inheriting the way to do that? The package's build system appears to
