I'll have to look at what guix/gnu-maintenance.scm does, but:
A couple years back, Brandon Invergo started migrating from
gnupackages.txt to a new recutils format (rec/gnupackages.rec). This
unfortunately required us to maintain two separate files.
Rather than get rid of gnupackages.txt completely, I wrote a script last
week to generate it from rec/gnupackages.rec. The formats are largely
the same---it's possible that you can use the recfile directly.
However, if you still need the old format, just run
`make gnupackages.txt`.
Lmk if that works for you. In the future, if you have problems with
gnumaint in womb, please email address@hidden; this message just
happened to catch my eye.
