Hi Guix,

I have pushed the series at https://issues.guix.gnu.org/77339 to the
mesa-updates branch and actually the build on Berlin is done other than
a handful. Will have to see how coverage on non-x86 looks (x86_64 is
good) but the fact that it finished on Berlin and looks similar to
master in overall percentage is a good sign?

I see we have many branches waiting, are they all world rebuilds? What
are their statuses?

I think this one is ready as long as substitutes have built.

Thanks!
John

I've gone ahead and merged mesa-updates after Efraim (added to CC) made
some fixes for riscv64-linux (though this isn't set to build on
QA/mesa-updates so substitutes will only build now on Berlin/master).

I'll be keeping an eye for any failures or reports of trouble, hopefully
just some random leaf packages at most.

It has been hard to investigate failures directly from the Berlin CI
jobset due to webfront end/build processing issues where. I had reports
of at least one user on IRC that has used the branch fine on their
machine, and I've checked my own manifests as well. Usually (hopefully
not famous last words!) there isn't much happening, but it would be good
to have people with different hardware in the future to test pre-merge,
especially older hardware.

I didn't spot anything that looked critical or necessarily related to
these changes, but I'll be sure to be available for any fixes. Overall
substitute coverage was about the same as master in the last few days so
I don't anticipate much action, hopefully.

Thanks for helping coordinate!

I really better create a mesa/graphics team and get this on a regular
schedule. It is a pretty straightforward branch and packages when doing
it a regular pace to keep relatively up to date with upstream.
