Re: Borg takes forever to upgrade

[HiPhish]

No, I just let it upgrade like any other of my packages, and the other 
packages upgraded within a reasonable timeframe (I haven't timed it, but let's 
just say ten minutes or so). My first attempt to upgrade ran for I think three 
hours (after typing `guix package -u` to upgrade all packages), but that's 
just what it felt like, I was not timing it. Borg was the first package to get 
upgraded, so I wasn't sure if it was a problem with Borg or a general 
upgrading problem. Then I upgraded all packages except Borg and finally tried 
upgrading only Borg alone. After that second attempt I sent the email.
