Hello,

On the 'core-updates' branch, emacs-exwm, tome4 and drascula fails to
build because 'make-desktop-entry-file' is not available.

My bad I guess :p
Should I just export it?

It's good if you test that it works, too!  :-)

It's strange because I did test it.
My guess is that the export disappeared during a conflict resolution.
I remember merging the patch months after initially testing it, so a
conflict must have been introduced in the meantime.

Anyways, will fix!

I've tried to test but it rebuilds the world, looks like there is no
substitute for core-updates.
I've pushed anyways, let me know if that works for you.

Obviously the CI system can not offer substitutes in advance for a
world-rebuilding change!  :-)

I feel slightly offended by being asked to try your untested patch.  Are
you under the impression that I _don't_ have to rebuild the world?

Thanks anyway, closing this issue as I am fairly confident it is solved.

Duh, my bad, sorry I was probably too distracted with other things at
Guix Days, I completely missed that the world obviously had to be rebuilt.
I guess I'm not used to dealing with core-updates :p

Actually, this brings up a genuine question: how do you test core-updates
for these type of changes?  Do we really have a rebuild the whole thing on
every iteration?

Cheers, and sorry for the mishaps!

Changing (guix build utils) is an extreme case, but pretty much.  I keep
a TODO list of things I want to do on that branch, and once it gets big
enough, I try to implement all at once before starting the Big Rebuild.

Then go do something else until a node in the graph fails to build.
Berlin typically has substitutes all the way up to 'guix', so it's "not
that bad" unless you are changing the really low layers.

> Cheers, and sorry for the mishaps!

No worries, and sorry for the angry comment.  :-)
