Thanks for the script and info. If I ran the commands correctly, it seems
almost everything rebuilt (I had an issue using the weather command to
remove bad packages):

./pre-inst-env guix build --keep-going $packages_to_build
[snip]
...
successfully built /gnu/store/wb49g7l2mvzzcl0j7z3av97qrl5iyvlb-yubikey-oath-dmenu-0.13.0.drv
guix build: error: build of `/gnu/store/fccggj5fmcr2mbcia8mc2pba7rfbs4dj-zathura-pdf-mupdf-0.4.0.drv', `/gnu/store/s5wc25hwld9cl3hds3qa25y7i2566l59-youtube-viewer-3.8.1.drv' failed


Given this is going to the gnome-team and I don't know the timeline for
that, generally speaking, do people just run ./pre-inst-env guix upgrade
if they want something locally?

Thanks
