The difficulty here is that Guix is effectively a large collection of libraries, which makes it hard to map it to the semver story, I think. Or to put it differently, we should map to semver in an “abstract way”: what semver refers to as “API changes” would rather be important CLI/API changes. Thoughts? Ludo’.
