Thanks for updating this.

To add to your manual checks above (and to the passing test suite), I
tested out public-inbox-httpd with some inboxes I have locally, and
everything there seems to be working as expected.

I think the perl-filesys-notify-simple input should be dropped because
Filesys::Notify::Simple isn't used as of v1.6.0.  Linux::Inotify2 is
used instead, but it doesn't look like that's packaged for Guix yet.  I
believe public-inbox has some fallback behavior here so that
public-inbox-watch is still functional, but ideally Linux::Inotify2
would be added as an input with this update to 1.6.1.

Otherwise, this patch looks good to me, but fwiw there are a few
optional dependencies (already packaged in Guix) that could be added:

 * highlight (syntax highlight for associated code repositories)
 * perl-inline-c (nice to have for performance reasons)
 * perl-parse-recdescent (as of v1.6.0, used only for public-inbox-imapd)
