How to fix this?
The procedure is ‘update-package-source’ in (guix upstream). it find the file, then use ‘substitute’ to replace the version and hash. ‘substitute’ works line-by-line, it can’t match mutiple lines. I try: - use ‘package-location’ and ‘read’ to get the package object, but it lost all format and comments. - use ‘string-match’, but I have no idea how to match the whole package sexp.
