Hi, Looking at the status of old patches, I hit this one patch#33318: Thanks for the patch.

I mean, if one is able to successfully run ’make’ without running before “guix shell -D guix”, then this person probably already know how to provide the versions of the dependencies, I guess. :-) Moreover, such failures are rare so once the bug report open, we can ask more details if the initial report does not contain enough. I propose to close this submission without applying. WDYT? Cheers, simon
