<phant0mas>good morning guix

<phant0mas>can i tell guix to use an older version of a tool to build a recipe?

<bavier`>phant0mas: some packages have older versions defined with a version suffix, e.g. python-2

<bavier`>generally they'll all be listed with guix package --list-available

<bavier`>which tool do you need an older version of?

<bavier`>looks like guix only has make 4.0

<bavier`>what seems to be the problem?

<phant0mas>I have a problem with glibc for hurd

<phant0mas>but probably I will just bypass this problem

*davexunit is sad that the guix fosdem video is still not available

<phant0mas>okay I bypassed that problem

<phant0mas>but I have to package the hurd protocols as well

<phant0mas>at last I can see light :P

<bavier`>phant0mas: glad you found a workaround

<phant0mas>finally we will need a cross-compiler to build hurd

<phant0mas>so ludo was wrong in a way about that

<phant0mas>okay I managed to make hurd libraries work

<phant0mas>things starting to clear up
