[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi, openfortivpn 1.17.3, the current version in master, stopped building
for me after guix pull, it seems stuck on building ppp-2.4.9.

Please take a look at my patch from 10 months ago, issue 73450, which
updates openfortivpn so that the current ppp can be used, that seems
to fix the problem that is now present.

Thanks!

thanks for the report, and please see my reply at
   https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/1614
where I suggest to update openfortivpn and to remove its dependent
package.

Closing the two issues on debbugs to continue the discussion on
codeberg.

Andreas
