Hi,

I've tried to apply and build these fonts. Apl 385 applied and built

without any issue, but it seems that apl333 sources have changed since

you posted your patch.

Apparently, they update the archives in-place, which is a bad practice

for distros such as ours, since it will break our packaging system at

an unknown time in the future. Do you know of any other source for

these fonts with versionned archives? Do you know how to contact the

author, to ask them for a versionned link?

Sadly I can't contact them, because they leave no contact at the site.

I' ll email you if I can find a way to retrieve source

deterministically, thanks.

If you don't find another method, you could upload the source code to

archive.org and make the Guix package fetch from there. We've done that

before to work around this kind of problem.

What have been done recently for case where the upstream is not

available anymore is: convert to Git and save to Software Heritage.

For instance, see commit 74cb33c22818b25d1b9c6d576352fc8249832d34 and

http://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/43426

especially this snippet:

Toggle snippet (6 lines)

$ (cd /tmp; tar xf $(guix build -S gdsl); guix hash -r /tmp/gdsl-1.8)

0a52g12d9sf9hhcyvwfd7xdazj2a9i9jh97cnlqf2ymvwnvjk1g0

$ guix hash -r $(./pre-inst-env guix build -S gdsl)

0a52g12d9sf9hhcyvwfd7xdazj2a9i9jh97cnlqf2ymvwnvjk1g0

Obviously, need tweaks for the issue at hand. :-)

All the best,
