I’m in favor of updating ‘configure.ac’ to check for Guile > 3.0.x
(we’ll have to check which value of ‘x’ works).
But…

… are you saying that requiring > 3.0.2 would cause problems when
porting to other architectures?
In general, we shouldn’t be tied to what Debian provides, but we can see
how much of a problem that would cause. If it really is a problem, we
can adjust that one reference to ‘default-optimization-level’ in (guix
ui).
Thanks,
