I am confused by the (rather cryptic) "Things done" checklist above. Are these items my responsibility as submitter of this pull request? I looked in CONTRIBUTING.md and "Chapter 11. Submitting changes" of the manual, and I am still unsure how to move forward.

@garrison those are mainly suggestions for things you should/could do to reduce the risk of breaking stuff and to eliminate some sources of impurities (aka packaging problems). Not all steps apply to all PRs. In the present case, you have indicated that this is a blind update.

Thanks @joachifm. I think I have checked the appropriate checkboxes now. As a meta issue, it would be really helpful for occasional contributors if this checklist were described in more detail [EDIT: either in CONTRIBUTING.md or in the manual]. I am still unsure from where I would run this nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip" command.

@garrison Thank you. LGTM.

nox is typically run within your checkout. I don't think it's described very well anywhere, unfortunately. These days, travis is able to run nox fairly reliably and provides at least some protection against broken revdeps. I guess you'll have to use your own judgement as to the amount of breakage that may result from your update and whether running nox review locally is worth the cycles (it's incredibly slow, in my experience).

Thanks!
