Let's use master as the base since misc-world-rebuild changes (guix build utils) and nothing can be built there locally (within a couple hours).

Thanks, and I think it's a good idea to both merge the with-info variant and update ncurses, in separate commits so the latter could be drop in case we can't figure out how to fix some dependent(s).

If team C++ is not doing a team branch in the foreseeable future, let's do it here. Could you ping them on that PR with a reference to this Debbugs issue <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/80782>? BTW Valgrind 3.27 is out now!

It is beyond my capability to review that patch though, so we still need inputs from the kernel team. I also think it's their place to decide which topic branch to merge it. Could you please mention this Debbugs message on the PR?

I think misc-world-rebuild could be a good topic branch for it (<https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/8248> right?).

It's not you, it's me, I only posted to guix-patches as required for a topic branch merge request, so probably most people are not aware of it. Best wishes, Phong
