I suppose it would help to see what commits of what repositories and what additional patches are required to set up a Hurd system with these features. I still haven’t been able to upgrade the Hurd packages in Guix because it is not clear to me what commits and additional patches we need — and I don’t have enough time to figure this out by myself. Could someone please list the needed patches and commits? (For someone who is not experienced with Debian at all, I should say that “just use the Debian patches!” is not actionable advice to me.) Getting more people to use the latest versions of the Hurd increases the likelihood of getting more contributions in that area. With Guix it’s easy to get a Hurd system started, and I’d be happy to help updating things — if someone could please point out where all the code is that should be used. Thanks! -- Ricardo
