Hi Guixers,

What should we do in the event that we don't have time to quickly fix packages 
that depend on a package that has an open CVE on it?

For example,

I provided gunicorn-next in a recent commit to master which fixes CVE-2024-1135 
but I don't have time at the moment to fix the bad gunicorn's dependents* 
against gunicorn-next.

Should we just remove the bad gunicorn and break the packages that depend on it 
in order to mitigate the risk of CVE-2024-1135?

all the best,

jgart

ps

Excuse the previous blank email. I pressed send by accident ;()

* Building the following 6 packages would ensure 15 dependent packages are 
rebuilt: python-baltica@1.1.2 python-mailman-hyperkitty@1.2.0 
python-falcon-cors@1.1.7 python-funsor@0.4.5 
python-matplotlib-documentation@3.8.2 scregseg@0.1.3
