gnu/packages/xdisorg.scm:1731:13: python-pyperclip would be upgraded
from 1.6.4 to 1.7.0
and then an email from github.com:
Hi @mwette,
On February 8th, 2020 at 14:37 (UTC) your personal access token (guix/bluefin) using GNU Guile was used as part of a query parameter to access an endpoint through the GitHub API:
https://api.github.com/repositories/32202720/releases
Please use the Authorization HTTP header instead, as using the `access_token` query parameter is deprecated and will be removed July 1st, 2020.
Depending on your API usage, we'll be sending you this email reminder once every 3 days for each token and User-Agent used in API calls made on your behalf.
Just one URL that was accessed with a token and User-Agent combination will be listed in the email reminder, not all.
Visithttps://developer.github.com/changes/2019-11-05-deprecated-passwords-and-authorizations-api/#authenticating-using-query-parameters for more information.
Thanks,
The GitHub Team
