Nice.  Applied as well, thanks!

It’s good to see the Julia package set grow.  I must say though that I
wonder about longer-term maintenance.

For example, I gave a first stab at upgrading Julia but then ran out of
time: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/73197>.

The other issue is that of individual package upgrades.  So far it seems
to be pretty smooth, but I suspect it won’t last.

What’s your take?
