Haunt 0.2.6 released

Haunt 0.2.6 released

[Thompson, David]

Hello everyone,

Haunt version 0.2.6 has been released.  This release restores
compatibility with Guile < 3.0 that was accidentally broken in 0.2.5.
Additionally, Haunt now uses the inotify API to watch for file changes
on Linux when running `haunt serve --watch`, replacing a slower and
more naive approach.

Haunt is a static site generator that uses the Guile Scheme as its
configuration language.  It aims to be simple, functional, and
extensible.

Features include:

* Easy blog and Atom/RSS feed generation
* Markdown post support
* Simple development server for viewing edits before publishing
* Purely functional build process
* User extensibility

GPG signature: https://files.dthompson.us/haunt/haunt-0.2.6.tar.gz.asc

See https://dthompson.us/projects/haunt.html for more information.

Happy haunting!

You need not care about it on old Guile IMHO, but in case you do,
check is buggy now.

guix shell --container -D guile2.2-haunt autoconf automake
./bootstrap
./configure
make
make check

The problem is that tests/helper.scm’s test-end returns unspecified.
This also breaks the check for haunt-0.2.6 on Parabola GNU/Linux-libre.

This seems to be a bug in Guile’s SRFI-64 implementation, fixed with
the later Guile commit f10bc1a86.  If I change Guix to use a patch of
the first hunk of that commit for Guile@2.2.7, it works.


Note that

guix build guile2.2-haunt \
--with-source=guile2.2-haunt='https://files.dthompson.us/haunt/haunt-0.2.6.tar.gz'

does not run tests at all according to its log file.  Neither does
guix build haunt.


Sorry for reporting this late.

Regards,
Florian

Hey Florian,

Thanks for the report. Yeah, Guile has made incompatible SRFI-64
changes in recent releases. I've chosen to prioritize having a working
test suite for the current version of Guile since that's what I
develop and test against.  The Guix package probably disabled tests
due to this same incompatibility and when they update they could
probably be enabled.
