Continuous Guile builds

Continuous Guile builds

Hello,

Guile is now continuously built straight from Git on the Hydra build
farm:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/guile-master/all
  http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/guile-1-8/all

For each Git commit, it builds a tarball (“make && make dist”), builds
and runs the test suite from that tarball, and finally does the same
with coverage analysis of the C code.

Currently builds only target GNU/Linux and Darwin.  The build farm also
has {Free,Open}BSD and Cygwin boxes but Nixpkgs[*] is not fully ported
there so we don’t build on these yet.

Thanks to Rob Vermaas and Eelco Dolstra of NixOS for starting work on
this and for supporting the idea!

Ludo’.

[*] Nixpkgs is the set of packages used by Nix, which is the package
    manager used by Hydra.  More info at http://nixos.org/.

Hey,

I forgot to mention that the latest source tarball, binaries, and
coverage report can be obtained from:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/view/gnu/guile-master/latest

Hey,

Sorry to distract you ;-) but while I was at it I couldn’t help but have
it build Guile with several ‘configure’ options:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/guile-master/all

Here you see builds ‘--without-threads’, ‘--disable-deprecated’, etc.
The good news is that some of them actually compile.  ;-)  Others should
be easily fixed.

For the curious, all this is done programatically:

  https://svn.nixos.org/repos/nix/hydra-config/gnu/trunk/guile/release.nix

Cheers,
Ludo’.
