[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi all,

It used to be possible to link to individual Guix packages like this:

https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/m.html#myrepos

Since the recent change to the packages website the packages pages are
paginated and have no anchors, which means they will break as more
packages are added and also I cannot link directly to a package,
only to a location that contains lots of other packages too.

https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/M/page/3/

Fixing this would be useful for the Repology support of GNU Guix,
which currently cannot link to GNU Guix packages:

https://repology.org/repository/gnuguix
https://repology.org/metapackage/myrepos/versions

-- 
bye,
pabs
