Subject: [bug#61790] [PATCH core-updates 0/5] Package cleanups: Guile, GnuTLS, ncurses

Hello!

Here’s a patch series that’s hopefully not too late, cleaning up core
packages and thus introducing a world rebuild.

I realize this will be annoying to people like Andreas who have been
testing things much higher in the stack (Chromium!).  What we could do
is have ci.guix build more than the “core” subset (the current setting);
it could build ‘etc/release-manifest.scm’, which contains things up
to IceCat.

Thoughts?

Ludo’.

Ludovic Courtès (5):
  gnu: guile: Remove input labels.
  gnu: gnutls: Remove Guile dependency.
  gnu: gnutls: Deprecate 'gnutls-latest'.
  gnu: gettext: Remove input label.
  gnu: ncurses: Rewrite using gexps.
