> I am on the fence on including versions 0.3.4 and 0.3.6. Their changelog

> potential, and are what the 'almost' above accounts for ;)
> I decided to omit them in the patch, hoping that this will prevent a
> lost soul or two from tripping over those dangerous (in terms of
> potential time loss) bugs.
>
> I did not include versions 0.1.0 and 0.1.1, as they fail to compile and
> I have no idea why.

Nothing to say, this LGTM, nice work!

You should now have a gitlab.inria.fr account.  We need to add you to
‘.guix-authorizations’; will you use the same OpenPGP key as in Guix?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
