<PurpleSym>Yeah, smells like alot of manual work – at least without using the “binary” NPM importer.
<PurpleSym>Do you want to move the affected packages to guix-science?
<rekado>I don’t know if it’s a good idea to add a package to guix-science that has a slightly older version in guix proper.
<rekado>but maybe that’s what I’ll end up doing
<rekado>which of the npm importers out there did you use for the rstudio javascript?
*rekado –> afk
<PurpleSym>The one by Jelle Licht.
<PurpleSym>It’s commit c795137b3ab57a2150c2414c6e1c427aaf127ded.
<PurpleSym>(Maybe there is a newer version, not sure.)
<PurpleSym>But you’re right wrt having the same package in Guix proper and guix-science. It only works well for leaf packages, with no dependents. Otherwise you’ll get nasty profile conflicts.
*rekado prepares a new iteration of the r-updates branch
*rekado pushes wip-r

<civodul>rekado: yay!
<civodul>rekado: tip of the day: if you send the patch series to debbugs, qa.guix will pick it up and build it :-)
<rekado>it’s 200+ patches. Still a good idea to send it to debbugs?
<rekado>(I’ve been building this kind of thing “manually” on ci.)
<civodul>heh, maybe not
