is the current core-updates branch ready for building and merging? I am looking at an issue: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/68606 that adds a patch (updating patchelf) that, as far as I understand, is already available on core-updates. So I feel somewhat blocked for the issue. The last merge was in spring of 2023, I think, and my patch updating wget is lingering in the branch since last July. So I am afraid we are reenacting the problems we had with the historic core-updates branch. It would be nice to merge and to move the branch to its new purpose. Also, https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65200 from last August is blocked by a core-updates merge (it should probably go to the new-style core-updates branch, and would be the starting point of working on bootstrapping from a newer GMP).
