Re: GNU Guix 1.4.0rc1 available for testing!

[pelzflorian (Florian Pelz)]

There are some release blockers.  To summarize, IMHO it would be
regrettable if these bugs were not fixed before release:

* [PATCH v2 2/3] install: Add missing e2fsprogs utility.
  <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59661>
  Otherwise manual installation does not work as advertised.

* [version 1.4.0rc1] reconfigure fails
  <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59780>
  Otherwise users cannot update Guix System once installed
  unless they take manual action.

* [version 1.4.0rc1] install.sh script should authorize bordeaux
  <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59781>
  Otherwise especially ARM users get far less substitutes
  unless they take manual action.

About string freeze: I do not know if that is the case, but changes to
critical parts of doc/guix.texi on master should not be reflected on
Weblate if they don’t get into 1.4.0.
