Subject: channels.scm supporting substitutes

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Ludovic posted some channels.scm code in September 2018 supporting using
more substitutes.  Unfortunately his code no longer functions due to an
upgrade of guile-json in guix.

I've tried to learn enough guile to upgrade the code to the newer json
structures, and posted my changes to github at
https://github.com/nomr72/guix-substitutes-channel .  It seems to run again
now.

Maybe I can learn enough to upgrade it to check the 'guix-master'
evaluations to find the latest build of key packages.  We'll see.
