bug#36865: Guix gc breaks grub

2019-08-23 Thread Xavier Montillet
Hi Ludo, All I can say for sure is that the bug was in the guix pull'ed version at some point in the week leading to July 31 (and most likely on July 30), and that the bug is no longer in the version of July 31 evening. Xavier On Fri, Aug 23, 2019, at 12:31 PM, Ludovic Courtès wrote: > Hi Xavi

2019-08-23 Thread Ludovic Courtès
