Hi Guix,
I'm an avid reader of `guix pull --news`. I like learning about new and
updated software. However, I noticed that when a package gains a new
replacement (e.g. for a security fix via grafting), it is not mentioned.
We do not show all changes to package definitions in the new, but since a
new replacement is often for a security fix, I think it is significant
enough to warrant showing in the news. I'm imagining something like:
"""
n packages with new replacements: gnutls, …
"""
or perhaps:
"""
n packages with new grafts: libxml, …
"""
I haven't yet though about the implementation of this. I would want to
avoid doing too much extra work for `guix pull --news`.
What do you think?
Best,
Jack
