Thanks! The patches no longer applied so I "recreated" them by copy and
paste.

Then, I grepped 'linux-libre-4.14' and noticed that there was a Guix
test using this package, so I removed that test in the amended commit.

Finally, I adjusted the commit hash in the news entry, tested with `make
check-channel-news`. News entries are a common source of errors that
crash `guix pull`, because the commit hash changes when signing commits
or when doing `git pull --rebase`. Always check the news before pushing!

Pushed as 497780ad25faf71d3ace39efe7451ef01e353d5b 

That's about 27000 lines of kernel configuration removed from the
codebase.

Hi Leo,

I finally found some time to prepare the patch series that removes all
4.14 linux-libre packages due to 4.14 being EoL. I also created an entry
in news.scm announcing the deprecation. WDYT?

Wilko Meyer (2):
  gnu: Remove linux-libre 4.14.
  news: Add entry for removing linux-libre 4.14 (EoL).
