Hi,

If the package source tarball is provided to ’--with-source’, then the
hash differs.  I would expect a fixed point.

Let investigate:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix build hello@2.10 --with-source=hello=https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gnu/hello/hello-2.10.tar.gz
/gnu/store/zfwhbbknkhxi3yqmp0qgh1l1crljgbm6-hello-2.10

$ guix build hello@2.10 
/gnu/store/a462kby1q51ndvxdv3b6p0rsixxrgx1h-hello-2.10
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Where https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gnu/hello/hello-2.10.tar.gz is an
official mirror.  I expect the same store item.

Why are they different?  It is because the derivations are different.
The first call contains the source tarball as an “input”; that’s fine.
The second call contains the source tarball as a derivation; again
that’s fine.  The corresponding first and second derivations are:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Derive
([("out","/gnu/store/zfwhbbknkhxi3yqmp0qgh1l1crljgbm6-hello-2.10","","")]
 ,[("/gnu/store/101ny738l311p4fm3cas7jgnkzagjv6a-module-import-compiled.drv",["out"])

[...]

   ,("/gnu/store/z4s27gwacbw8f38andfsh21r8v330dag-xz-5.2.4.drv",["out"])]
 ,["/gnu/store/8a0wry8cvr405ha8d8bpjyzj5dzghigd-module-import",
 "/gnu/store/chariqd6k0sli3s7vcl4q3al0crirz5v-hello-2.10.tar.gz",
 "/gnu/store/rndq9g8877l29ha41dvsl3aj1z0gw0ng-hello-2.10-guile-builder"]

[...]

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Derive
([("out","/gnu/store/a462kby1q51ndvxdv3b6p0rsixxrgx1h-hello-2.10","","")]
 ,[("/gnu/store/101ny738l311p4fm3cas7jgnkzagjv6a-module-import-compiled.drv",["out"])
   ,("/gnu/store/1a7xfcqcxj0pqi4f81x1agcxa46v2bbm-hello-2.10.tar.gz.drv",["out"])

[...]

   ,("/gnu/store/z4s27gwacbw8f38andfsh21r8v330dag-xz-5.2.4.drv",["out"])]
 ,["/gnu/store/8a0wry8cvr405ha8d8bpjyzj5dzghigd-module-import",
 "/gnu/store/kql8b2hbsabcmany4m3hfm3wzdiymliy-hello-2.10-guile-builder"]

[...]

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Therefore, I understand why the two store items have different hashes.
Although, it should be better that the derivations would be the same;
another story. :-)


What puzzled me are the corresponding ’guile-builder’s:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (define %build-inputs
    (quote
     (("source" . "/gnu/store/chariqd6k0sli3s7vcl4q3al0crirz5v-hello-2.10.tar.gz")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (define %build-inputs
    (quote
     (("source" . "/gnu/store/hbdalsf5lpf01x4dcknwx6xbn6n5km6k-hello-2.10.tar.gz")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

but these 2 items have the same hash:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix hash /gnu/store/chariqd6k0sli3s7vcl4q3al0crirz5v-hello-2.10.tar.gz
0ssi1wpaf7plaswqqjwigppsg5fyh99vdlb9kzl7c9lng89ndq1i

$ guix hash /gnu/store/hbdalsf5lpf01x4dcknwx6xbn6n5km6k-hello-2.10.tar.gz
0ssi1wpaf7plaswqqjwigppsg5fyh99vdlb9kzl7c9lng89ndq1i
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Why?  It is fixed-output so I was expecting the same thing.  And the
same as:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix download https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gnu/hello/hello-2.10.tar.gz

Starting download of /tmp/guix-file.qkhxkp

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Why the store item of source tarball is it different when applying the
transformation?

Maxime provided a clue [1].

All the best,
simon

Maxime is right: ‘--with-source’ passes #:recursive? #t unconditionally,
whereas it’s usually #f for a ‘url-fetch’ kind of URI.

What we could do is make it #t if and only if the URL denotes a local
file and that file is a directory.  I think that would achieve what you
want without any observable regression in practice.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

This seems reasonable to me.

Thanks for confirming.  Why is it different?

What I expect is that 2 (fixed-output) files with the same hash
(0ssi1w…) lives at the same store location…

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix hash /gnu/store/chariqd6k0sli3s7vcl4q3al0crirz5v-hello-2.10.tar.gz
0ssi1wpaf7plaswqqjwigppsg5fyh99vdlb9kzl7c9lng89ndq1i

$ guix hash /gnu/store/hbdalsf5lpf01x4dcknwx6xbn6n5km6k-hello-2.10.tar.gz
0ssi1wpaf7plaswqqjwigppsg5fyh99vdlb9kzl7c9lng89ndq1i
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

…whatever if these (fixed-output) files come from “guix download”, “guix
build -S” or “--with-source=https://” or etc.

The mapping from hash (0ssi1w…) to store location should be 1:1 for
fixed-output, IMHO.

Cheers,
simon

Because we want ‘--with-source’ to also work with directories (see
comment in ‘package-with-source’).

The difference here is that one is marked as “recursive” and the other
is not.

The patch below does one I suggested earlier: passing #:recursive? #t if
and only if we know the source is a directory.

However it’s not enough to get the same derivation: we’d also need
<downloaded-file> to return a fixed-output derivation rather than a
plain store file name.  (See also <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49696>.)

To be continued…
