Sorry.  I am not actively monitoring this mailing list, so I didn't
notice that email.  I'm busy as hell and nearly wore out myself.

I briefly checked that big diff and notice only one special hack not
included in this patch series.

He disabled the test for qemu in that patch:

#+begin_src diff
  diff --git a/gnu/packages/virtualization.scm b/gnu/packages/virtualization.scm

This is probably a careless mistake.


That email is from someone in pantherx.org.  PantherX is a GNU/Linux
distribution based on Guix according to their website
(https://wiki.pantherx.org/PantherX-compared-to-other-distributions/).
It's interesting to see other GNU/Linux distros based on Guix.  We are
getting popular! ;-)


I have tested this patch series on my computer for over two weeks so I
think it's probably safe to merge.
