For the record (and any reviewers), these patches should be
applied in order:
#40591 emacs-org-roam
#40593 emacs-uml-mode
#40616 emacs-4clojure
#40613 emacs-typing
They're not interdependent, just patch-context-dependent.

Martin, Ricardo,
I agree with Ricardo (here and in matters of fonts) that
propagation is to be avoided at all reasonable costs, so…

…that was a mistake, in retrospect, fixed in
96681d4be101c771fafd4257aca471685119fedd.
You can probably apply that same fix directly to Evolution. There
should be no need to propagate anything.

Guix,
Just leaving this here so I don't forget.
Sometimes fonts break, and after a few frustrating, impotent runs
of ‘fc-cache -rv’ you notice:
/var/cache/fontconfig: not cleaning unwritable cache directory
Deleting this stale (root-owned) directory makes fonts fun again.
Happens about once or twice a month here.

I will do so swiftly since I updated libvirt to the 'broken' version
(although I never had any troubles like yours). Thank you for
reporting this upstream.
A personal note: I find this new wave of 'ATTENTION REQUIRED' messages
quite the opposite of motivating and pleasant. I'm honestly not sure
what result you expect from them. I fear it may backfire.
You are very welcome to contribute patches yourself! I don't mean
'patches or GTFO', I mean 'please dive in, the water's great'. The
reviewers don't bite. You don't need to be a programmmer; I'm not.
You've been part of our discussions for a while, you obviously care
about Guix and Free software, and particularly about certain Gnome and
'desktop-demographic' packages that are clearly under-maintained or
even missing because we're missing people like you. Learning to create
and maintain them yourself is hardly more work than trying to herd
volunteers like this -- and a hell of a lot more fun.
Kind regards,

Have you tried installing the packages that provide these
functions into your profile? You'll have to figure out what they
are, but I'm guessing ‘Encryption System’ is gnupg. ;-)
This is really a bug in Claws (‘unhelpful error messages’), not
Guix.
Just adding gnupg to the claws-mail closure (an exta 26.5 MiB or
4%) does not appeal to me personally, especially since the same
message for dictionaries would remain anyway (they are optional by
definition). I think improving the error messages is a better
approach.
It's not our habit to do so, but perhaps we could patch them to
explicitly say ‘please install the "gnupg" package’ if upstream
is unresponsive.
Kind regards,

No apologies necessary. It's nice to know that our Rust updates
will always follow swiftly on the heels of upstream as long as you
take care of them. However, please make sure to check the
signature (.asc) once the final release is cut; one never knows...

Yes, this is exactly what happened. I consider this is a feature
of Guix, even though it can feel like a gotcha sometimes. :-)
We often tend to think of the source URL(s) as an ‘identifier’ of
the source file. However, it is nothing more than a hint about
its *location*. The only authoritative identifier of its
*content* is the hash: to get *this file* (content hash), try
looking *here* (location: URL).
One origin may have 0 or more source URLs: Guix will try them all
until it downloads something matching the hash (and if even that
fails it will try some implicit ones like tarballs.nixos.org).
‘Unique’ identifier (hash)
├ maybe you can *find* it here (URL)
├ or here (another URL)
├ hell maybe here I don't know (yet another URL)
⋮
Guix cares only about the content of the file; it doesn't care or
even remember how it got it. Or: if you change the download hint
(release URL in this case), Guix won't care, because you didn't
change the hash.
I hope that makes some sense,

I get that too.

Since release archives are signed that would imply some horrible
things about their key management, so I doubt it very much. I
guess we'll find out.
I've gone ahead and pushed a fix since the signature checked out.
I'm closing this bug for now...
However, I'd be interested to know what the previous hash
described. Do you still have that file around, Ivan?

Guix,
The package list at <https://guix.gnu.org/packages/S/page/4/>
displays the wrong versions for sqlite:
sqlite 3.26.0
sqlite 3.26.0
sqlite-with-column-metadata 3.26.0
Which should be:
$ guix pull && guix package -A ^sqlite
sqlite 3.26.0 …
sqlite 3.24.0 …
sqlite-with-column-metadata 3.24.0 …
At first glance it looks like the Web list iterates over package
names instead of package records, then looks up the ‘default’
package for each name … but packages like ‘gcc-objc’[0] are
listed correctly, so maybe that's not what's happening.
Noticed by sebboh on #guix.

Guix,
bricewge on #guix informed me that there's no way to pass a git
tag as source transformation option. Indeed:
‘--with-commit=PACKAGE=COMMIT’
This is similar to ‘--with-branch’, except that it builds
from
COMMIT rather than the tip of a branch. COMMIT must be a
valid Git
commit SHA1 identifier.
is quite different from (guix git-download)'s pleasantly liberal
notion of commit:
(git reference
(url "git://foo.org/fizbo")
(commit "fizbo-4.5")) ; tag yay
bricewge suggested that a single ‘--with-git-ref[erence]=’ could
replace both ‘--with-branch’ and a new ‘--with-tag’, and I agree.
(Although I prefer the full spelling, of course :-)
Two questions:
- Is this really not supported yet, or am I missing the obvious?
- Why is the (extremely) git-specific ‘--with-commit=’ option not
called ‘--with-git-commit=’? Was it intended to be more generic
than it is now? Should the new option be ‘--with-reference=’ as
well? That's pushing it a little far. And three questions in
one; I'm cheating.
Kind regards,
T G-R

This will keep happening until we find(/create) a versioned URL
for these files. Let's Encrypt like to change them in place.
The last time this happened they'd added CR/LF line endings for no

Guix,
I just encountered the following:
foo.scm:4:2: error: url-fetch: unbound variable
hint: Did you forget `(use-modules (guix build download))'?
Actually importing that module, instead of (guix download), will
cause some other very hard-to-debug error that I can't remember
but coincidentally helped someone fix on #guix the other day.
Now I understand how they got to that bad place.

Still, we can tell that this is an ‘mbr’ layout:

They aren't the same: the one in your screenshot is a completely
different ‘gpt’ layout.
Hence my unanswered question:
> Did you create this layout manually? If so, why?
Although now I suspect there was no reason and that the installer
isn't to blame.
So you can either:
- throw away your existing layout and create new MBR disklabel.
Your partitioning software will ask you or provide an option
somewhere. Since modern partitioning software leaves a huge gap
before the first partition, GRUB will nestle cosily into that
first unused ~MiB.
- keep it as GPT (it has some minor features MBR doesn't), and
create an additional GPT ‘BIOS boot partition’ as recommended
before. It only needs to be a few 100 KiB, so I use the space
before the first partition (= before the first megabyte; turning
off ‘alignment’ in your partitioning software). This tiny
partition is for use by GRUB, and GRUB alone: do not format or
mount it.
Both options work equally well, but you need to choose.

Installing GRUB to your root partition isn't supported, and should
never be necessary anyway.

This is a strange partition layout; it's missing a ‘BIOS boot
partition’ and can never work without forcing GRUB to do something
it doesn't like to do.
Did you create this layout manually? If so, why?

There were no warnings and the code itself runs fine (believe me,
I've run it way too often already -_-') because this was written
on top of #36132.

Yes. See the other patches in this ad-hoc ‘series’.

Sure, I guess, but could you explain the point of doing so?
Reproducibility by others? I don't think patches like these
should be pushed with such light testing, and I don't see how this
can be tested in a VM.
Hence the dusty Dell Latitude mentioned earlier ;-)
It smells funny.

Yah, I didn't merge the bugs for that reason, and because I'm
still trying to fix more bugs (well, mainly waiting for dd while
doing other stuff, since this can't be tested in a VM…)

This. Also, this only affects grub-install—not ‘grub

Whoa! This is not a fair summary. The only ‘bug’ there is that
Ubuntu (and RHEL's?) *implementation* was buggy, nothing more.
Nowhere is it implied that a distribution not adding .local/bin to
people's PATH is in any way ’buggy’.

This is what still needs to be established: is it? Which ones?
Is it merely a side-effect of them using systemd? And most
crucially: does it mean that Guix needs to add it too? What about
~/bin?
I'm was just interested in the (ideally: your) arguments for doing
so, not a link to a discussion site. If it really breaks things
that should work, I'm all in favour of adding it to the default
skeleton, if not /etc/profile itself.

You can already easily add custom directories to $PATH in your
.bash_profile, if my understanding of bash's complicated set of
configuration files is still accurate. That's where I set it,
anyway:
~ λ grep PATH= .bash_profile
PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
and it's always worked fine. :-)

So ~/.local/bin is a relatively recent systemd thing[1], replacing
the conventional ~/bin.
My theory is that it's intended for users of graphical file
browsers (where the traditional ~/bin is a bit too prominent even
for my tastes), but I use it too.
It's trivial to augment $PATH yourself, whether or not your
distribution is systemd-based.

As much as I like the ‘GNU Guix: the System THEY don't want you to

Guix,
[This is for after 1.0.1, but I'd forget otherwise.]
This happened to a new user on IRC tonight, and I understand their
logic. After guided partitioning (using the installer),
installation failed, and they decided to continue manually.
Here's where they started:
3.6 Manual Installation
=======================
…
* Menu:
* Keyboard Layout and Networking and Partitioning:: Initial
setup.
* Proceeding with the Installation:: Installing.
Having just ‘partitioned’, they ‘proceeded’. The first task in
that section is ‘herd start cow-store’, which fails because /mnt
isn't mounted yet. According to our manual, that's also part of
‘partitioning’. Eh. I get why, but would prefer to reorganise
this a bit to make such errors less likely.
Kind regards,

Never mind, that was the first ‘->’ that looked relevant at first
glance but it's metasyntactic like most ‘->’s in the Guile manual…
I found it in the Guix manual, of course.

Oh. That's… disappointing to say the least, since these are both

We can randomly delete whole caches in the user's stead but it's
never the ‘right’ solution. Only the application can manage its
caches properly. I still hope this is possible in both cases
here.

Oh, we're talking about different things then.
Installing (in any sense) emacs will add its dependencies to the
store (your ‘install’), but doesn't propagate them into the
profile (my ‘install’):
~ λ guix environment --pure --ad-hoc emacs
~ λ dot
bash: dot: command not found
I tend to avoid the unqualified term ‘install’ on Guix for this
reason. Sorry for the confusion!

Not bein' snarky here: where else would you expect it to be? I've
never seen the DSK categorised as anything but ‘US (Dvorak)’. The
layout itself is pretty anglocentric, and even (I mean: of course)
the UK Dvorak subtly differs from the US one.
I assume this isn't the first time you've installed a GNU/Linux
distribution, so I'm curious where you found it on others. Do
they flat-out alias ‘Dvorak’ to the US variant? Not convinced we
should emulate that.
Side note: the Debian (or was it Ubuntu?) installer has a great
feature to help you figure out your keyboard layout in the minimum
number of keystrokes. I wonder if we could use that decision tree
data in our own installer. IME most people have no idea what the
name of their keyboard layout is; it's always ‘er, the regular
one?’ to them.
Imma check it out,

Thanks for these, but providing the output of ‘guix describe’
instead (and making sure both your system and user's packages have
been fully updated to that version) would be even more
informative.
> ## Traceback
I can't reproduce this, by the way (output below). Gajim opens a
window and a welcome wizard (which I close). Then I'm left with
the main window where all the menus work… but all options are
greyed out (except a few under ‘View’). So the programme isn't
frozen, but I can't close it, not even using my window manager's
key bindings. Hence the SIGINT at the end.
Very strange. Is anyone successfully using Gajim on Guix System?
Clément? Ricardo?

Raghav,
Thanks for taking a look at this. I'm sure there's plenty to be
improved in how we package a large collection of software like
GNOME in an intuitive way.
Raghav Gururajan wrote:

Using ‘correct’ here is a bit strong.
~ λ guix install epiphany
~ λ gnome-web
bash: gnome-web: command not found
~ λ epiphany
# browsin' time
While we don't blindly name packages after the binaries they
provide, of course, a look at the project's own publications
doesn't reduce the confusion. Ironic.
“Web is the web browser for the GNOME desktop and for elementary
OS,
based on the popular WebKit engine. It offers a simple, clean,
beautiful view of the web featuring first-class GNOME and
Pantheon
desktop integration. Its code name is Epiphany.
You may install Web from the software repositories of most
Linux
operating systems, where it is normally packaged as
"epiphany-browser" or "epiphany". ”[0]
The README[1] mainly, but not exclusively, talks about ‘Epiphany’.
Even the two URLs balance each other out. I don't think there's
enough here to justify gross renaming, and in the name of all
that's holy let's avoid another mass renaming incident.
Personally, I think adding ‘GNOME Foo’ to the synopses of all
these packages is sufficient (epiphany does this by coincidence,
calling itself the ‘GNOME web browser’). Eventually, this could
be another use for the separate (G)UI display name field as
suggested in the games thread. :-)
Package names aren't opaque identifiers, but they can be a little
technical IMO.
Kind regards,
T G-R

The current generation is by definition not a previous one and
shouldn't appear in the ‘previous’ list, but I see how it could be
confusing. Especially once possible language barriers and
translations are added to the mix.

It makes for an uglier boot menu, which sounds silly, but I've
noticed that the more numbers and symbols are on a screen, the
more likely ‘non-geeks’ are to ignore the whole thing as something
not meant for them to understand. Especially a black one :-) I
see it as part of GNU's values to counter that attitude.
How about changing ‘previous generations’ to ‘all generations’,
and have it include the current generation at the top (now with #
and date, maybe ‘(current)’ appended)?
That way we can keep the default nice and friendly and skimmable
in ~5s, and the overview is actually a complete overview.

---
mikadoZero, Guix,
Here's a patch to match package outputs (except ‘out’, since it can't affect the relative score) in ‘guix search’.
Before:
~ λ guix search ernel-patch
# nothing
After:
~ λ guix search ernel-patch
name: wireguard
version: 0.0.20190406
outputs: out kernel-patch
…
~ λ guix search ^ernel-patch
# nothing
While the new REGEXP/NEWLINE flag affects how all fields are matched, I don't think it actually changes anything in practice without the second hunk.
If there's a possibility that it might, I'd split this into two commits.
Kind regards,
T G-R

* bug#35583: Setting a GRUB keyboard-layout breaks GRUB… and Linux‽

Guix,
Some (=none) of you might remember my X keyboard woes on #guix,
where I was stuck without a backspace key or the key below it (\,
|) on my ThinkPad X230T's US keyboard. Both sent out
‘XF86ScreenSaver’ codes instead.
I tried dozens of things, both in my system configuration and by
running random stateful xkb commands (naughty), and managed to
‘fix’ the bug without ever finding the cause (very naughty).
I think I was looking for it in all the wrong places. Something
goes wrong before the kernel even boots. Here's my
keyboard-layout:
(keyboard-layout
(keyboard-layout
"us" "dvp" ;
kaufmann.no/roland/dvorak
#:model "thinkpad" ; pc104, pc105, thinkpad,
…
#:options ; list of XKB Option
strings
(list "" ; unset all inherited
options
"caps:shiftlock" ; Shift Lock affects all
keys
"shift:breaks_caps" ; Shift cancels Caps Lock
"compose:102" ; next to left Shift on
pc105
"lv3:ralt_switch" ; key to choose 3rd level
"nbsp:level3n" ; nbsp @lv3, thin nbsp
@lv4
"numpad:shift3" ; Num Lock: Shift chooses
lv3
"kpdl:semi" ; key pad semicolon @lv3
"misc:typo" ; add extra typographic
chars
"ctrl:swapcaps" ; onwards for great Emacs
"terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"))) ; zap X just to watch it
die
Here's what works just fine:
(service slim-service-type
(slim-configuration
(xorg-configuration
(xorg-configuration
(keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)
…
However, today I tried to (re-)add it to GRUB, too, and ended up
writing the following comment:
(bootloader
(bootloader-configuration
(bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
;; XXX Strange bug: GRUB can read the LUKS passphrase, but
afterwards (at
;; the menu screen) no longer responds to key presses. Even
stranger: it
;; makes my X230T's backspace key send ‘XF86ScreenSaver’s even
on Linux.
;; (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)
(target "/boot/efi")
(timeout 1))))
This is 100% reproducible.
I'll try to narrow it down a bit, but the combination of losing my
actual work-workstation (which is also my funstation) while
entering my passphrase 5 times, every time, makes that an
unpleasant and tedious affair.
Kind regards,
T G-R

Yup! :-)
‘Toolchain’ exactly describes what you're looking for, so I'm
going to go ahead and close this bug.
(Speaking as a user, I'd be annoyed to the point of switching if
my distro installed ‘binutils’ when asked for ‘gcc’.)

Transmission's GTK GUI interface is in a separate package output
(to keep the main output from depending on GTK+, which is quite
huge). Install ‘transmission:gui’ and you'll be happy.
The :gui output also provides a .desktop file that should make
things like GNOME add it to their launcher.

The command is ‘transmission-gtk’; ‘transmission’ doesn't exist.

‘…why should it be’? :-)
I think the confusion here stems from vague terms like ‘added to
the system’. It sounds like you're still adjusting to Guix
vs. traditional FHS distributions where everything is thrown into
one big pile — which is completely understandable!
As you found out, all the Tor service really does is start the
‘tor’ binary. Hence, Tor is indeed installed to your store
(/gnu/store/*-tor-*/bin/tor) and is invoked by the Shepherd when
your system starts.
But that's completely unrelated to your system profile (which is
what I think you mean by ‘system packages list’; the profile
generated from the SYSTEM-PACKAGES field of your
OPERATING-SYSTEM). To use Tor from the command line, simply add
‘tor’ to that field.
Unlike other distributions, Guix System doesn't make a package's
binaries available to *all users* merely because a *service*
depends on them. The two steps are (rightly) completely separate.
Does that help?
Kind regards,
T G-R

This is basically bug #35417, so I'm going to merge (and close)
both of them. You'll find that this is true for all services, and
these are not bugs. Really! :-)

Strongly disagree.
What's ‘invoke’ supposed to mean here? The openvpn service *does*
invoke openvpn.
If you want (your) user to do the same, like all packages, openvpn
must be added to SYSTEM-PACKAGES or installed into their own
profile.

To use the ‘tor’ command, like any other package, you must install
the ‘tor’ package into either the system profile (using
SYSTEM-PACKAGES) or that of your user (using ‘guix package’).
I'd recommend SYSTEM-PACKAGES in this case so the tor commands
will always match the version of Tor used by the service.
This is by design; services can't pollute the environment of
users, including the system profile. That's a good thing.

That's just not true. The tor service does its job and works just
fine without the ‘tor’ command. I just checked both of my Tor
nodes (both run Guix :-) and neither of them have ‘tor’ installed
into any profile. Nyx and herd (and emacs torrc) are all I need
to administrate them.
I'm closing this because there's no bug here…
Kind regards,
T G-R

The links aren't broken, but implemented in a very… special way:
~ λ curl
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Features.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Page has moved! — GNU Guix</title>
<noscript><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;
url=../en/html_node/Features.html"></noscript>
</head>
<body onload="window.location =
'../en/html_node/Features.html';">
[…]
I.e. inject arbitrary code into the user's browser and if it
catches us, fall back to http-equiv hackery. Not good!
The fix is to send out real (HTTP 307/302) redirections, but the
problem might be that gnu.org won't let us.

I can avoid this by pulling from
--commit=15dca289b8bd1418c5f5f3b545cb497497cad02e. Then I can
pull to HEAD just fine.

Guix,
I ran into the following running ‘guix pull’ from the 0.16.0
aarch64 binary tarball on the original Overdrive OpenSUSE.
Apologies for the truncation, but this happened over the serial
console. I'm running ‘guix pull’ with output redirection now, and
it's been running for a suspiciously long time without errors…

Guix,
After installing the eolie Web browser from Guix and opening it
for the first time, it immediately loads www.google.com. This was
an unpleasant surprise to me (I lead a sheltered life) and I
consider it a bug.
From cursory source-pokin's it seems pretty trivial to change the
default start page to guix.info or about:blank.
However, www.google.com is also used as the default search engine
when the user mistypes a URL or searches from the navigation bar.
Not good! There doesn't seem to be a way to disable that, only to
change the providers.
Built-in alternatives are DuckDuckGo and Qwant. Are they any
better?

If you're comfortable installing packages from Guix source, could
you give the attached patch a try? (If you're not, I urge you to
try anyway — it's not that hard :-)
It's a stab in the dark, since I can't actually run evolution

I guess this is one of those (Unix-)cultural knowledge things: it
wouldn't even occur to me to build or test anything as root unless
explicitly asked to do so :-)

Thanks for the offer! I think adding yet another gotcha to the
manual should be a last resort, though. Many people still miss
them and get into trouble (and on to IRC).
Could we, in order of preference:
- make these tests pass even when run as root? (I guess not?)
- skip them and add ‘n tests not run as root’ to the final tally?
- refuse to even start the test suite as root?
What ‘root’ means here will depend on why these tests are failing.

- The wave of Perl updates this March was me, using ‘guix refresh
-u’ (and manually checking for breakages, of course).
I never use ‘guix refresh’, until after about a year I forget why,
use ‘guix refresh’ once, and promptly remember.
The updater for CPAN packages is at best caveat-quality. It
helpfully downloads the updated tarball to the store, but doesn't
update the URL. Since the file is in the store, everything works
fine on the updater's machine, then breaks everywhere else.
Background: the problem here is that CPAN URLs contain the
uploader name, e.g. (Karen?) ETHER(idge) in the case of
mirror://cpan/authors/id/E/ET/ETHER/URI-1.76.tar.gz
which doesn't change every VERSION (so the problem is somewhat
hidden) but more frequently than the author/maintainer would.
I'm planning on finally taking care this problem after I get home
(and after I finally get the Overdrives set up, cough), either by
making the CPAN updater also rewrite URL fields (if possible?), or
finding out whether there's a way to construct these URLs without
using the uploader name, or… well, that's all I have for now.
- While fixing the remaining fallout from this, I did find a few
other broken CPAN links for packages that I hadn't recently
touched. Updating them broke others, so I just left them alone.
I don't know if these are more broken refreshes from longer ago
that went unnoticed (so basically nobody uses these packages),
or if there's another unrelated problem.

While true (I noticed that too), that's not the problem here. The

Guix,
The full-sized screenshots at
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/screenshots/gnome/ look
awkwardly left-aligned to me[0].
Is this intentional? A browser bug? This is in Icecat 60.5.1 on
Guix System.
Bonus wishlist bug(?): I was going to link to just
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/screenshots/ above, but that
gives me an Apache directory index.
Now I'm a fan of sites that don't blanket-404 directories for
whatever misguided reason, but this should probably be its own
(pretty) page.

No problem. I hope you get them resolved. I can only say that
Guix is worth it.

You'd clone the Guix git repository from Savannah, ‘git am’ the
patch e-mail in question, then follow the instructions in section
14.2 (Running Guix Before It Is Installed) of the manual using
‘./pre-inst-env guix package -i font-terminus’ to install the
patched package.
However, you won't need to do any of that today. :-)
I was already on the fence about just pushing this change anyway,
and remembering the existence of outputs sealed the deal. I
always forget that they exist. Installing ‘font-terminus’ still
gives you the upstream selection, but could you
$ guix pull
$ guix package -i font-terminus:pcf-8bit
$ fc-cache -fr
verify that the above command worked:
$ fc-list | grep ter-116b
…are/fonts/terminus/ter-116b.pcf.gz: Terminus:style=Bold
and see if your font situation improves?
If Terminus is actually unusable without those files, I'll add
them back to :out.

Does the other system have ‘as’ installed? Install the
‘gcc-toolchain’ package that provides it and try again.
Usually, this kind of error means that ghc needs to be patched to
invoke ‘as’ from an absolute file name instead of searching $PATH.
There may have been good reasons not to do this (such as closure
size), or it might be an oversight.

I updated font-terminus from 4.40 to 4.47 in commit 73c5c482. I
wonder if your problem could be caused by this intermediate
upstream change[0]:
Version 4.46:
The X11 8-bit code pages are not installed by default.
Indeed, I'd noticed that some half of the 4.40 files were
‘missing’ from 4.47, but my fonts continued to work just fine and
we don't (usually…) diverge from upstream without good reason.
This is probably a good reason :-) Does the attached patch fix
your problem?

Well, TMPDIR= should Just Work :-)
You'll have to set it to the environment of guix-daemon (and
restart the daemon) for it to have any effect. How that's done
depends on your service manager/init system.
I guess a ‘set-tmpdir’ RPC could be added to the protocol. I
haven't thought through the security implications, and IMO it's
just papering over the real bug, which is…
> Is this a bug?
Not sure what exactly you're referring to, but yes, I do think
that using /tmp instead of /var/tmp (or any non-tmpfs) is a bug by
modern(?) conventions. It's guaranteed to break eventually on
almost every non-Guix System, and when it doesn't it's an abuse of
RAM and swap space.

Do you mean to put something like
guix() {
command "$1" "$@"
hash "$1"
}
in the default /etc/profile (or wherever such things belong)?
I think this is far too intrusive and magical to do by default,
considering its limited one-time-only usefulness. The same goes
for patching shells.
Kind regards,

Thanks for the report! It's a bit short :-)
I'd like to mark this as duplicate of #30785[1] but won't for now,
since I can't reproduce your findings:
~ λ youtube-dl --version
2018.11.07
~ λ man --version
man 2.8.3
~ λ guix --version
guix (GNU Guix) 0.16.0-3.6ddc63e […]
~ λ man youtube-dl | egrep '^[A-Z ]+$'
NAME
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
OPTIONS
CONFIGURATION
OUTPUT TEMPLATE
FORMAT SELECTION
VIDEO SELECTION
FAQ
DEVELOPER INSTRUCTIONS
BUGS
COPYRIGHT
However! I can no longer reproduce #30785 either:
~ λ man 5 knot.conf | grep -E '^(NAME|DESCRIPTION)'
NAME
DESCRIPTION
Probably because the bug is locale-related and I've got broken
locales after the last release. Are the pages mentioned in bug
#30785 truncated for you, too?
Kind regards,

That would kill the ‘-119’ red herring but it's still ugly.

I'd expect such droppings not to happen at all.
I regret that I haven't had time to look at the ‘new’
pretty-printing code (port?) yet, but it should be possible to
clear the spinner before a new line. If that's much harder than it
ought to be, our red herring's more of a red flag.

Not much later, it clicked:
λ ~/guix/pre-inst-env guix ...
building /gnu/store/eee...-profile.drv...
|119 packages in profile
λ
I'd just got lucky spinning the Wheel of Guix.
So this bug isn't as interesting as I thought, but it's ugly and a
little annoying.
Kind regards,

If I correctly read the Debian maintainer's post in the bug you
linked[0], it's possible to revert only the libImageProcessor
infec^Waddition. If it's all right with everyone, I'd like to give
that a try first. Say by tomorrow? Or do you want to revert first
& ask such questions later?

Nice. I wish it worked.
Aside, -ish: looks like most distributions there found out about
this file due to some failing sanity check. Perhaps we could add
our own, in ‘guix lint’ or at build time, to warn about ELF files
and other suspicious binaries in post-snippet sourceballs?
No idea if it's worth the trouble/performance hit/false-positive
rate, of course. That's for the ner^Wgods to decide.

Guix,
Two simultaneous ‘guix weather’s on the same machine will step on
each others' toes and die.
They were running in two separate repositories, both vanilla
sv:guix, one at v0.15.0, the other on master (7a7c91a).
Both aborted like this:

Here's what I use:

Oh, the irony.

This is just wrong: it calls the client's /gnu/store/.../sh on the
server.

That's a good point (all my remotes run GuixSD, hiding the bug).
> The only requirements on the server side should be Python.
It's all well & good for upstream to say that (they do), but if
they explicitly call /bin/sh on the server then it's just not
true. A POSIX-compliant 'sh' was always an unstated server-side
dependency, and Guix happens to be very good at finding (and
breaking :-) those.
The hard-coded '/bin/' kluge was accepted later¹. Can't fathom
why. If brianmay's last comment is still true they'll accept the
correct 'exec sh' solution too.
Could you check whether replacing '(which "sh")' with '"sh"'
works? It does for me.

Wouldn't that break [any client -> vanilla GuixSD server] cases?
No denying that this regression needs to be fixed,
though. Apologies for breaking your 'flow.

Not out of the box, and last time I checked vanilla certbot didn't
provide an nsupdate (RFC2136) hook alongside all the DNSaaS API
rubbish.
But it's certainly possible, and wonderfully stable once set
up. t.gr runs entirely on GuixSD + Knot + DNS-validated LE certs.

This means that sshuttle on vanilla GuixSD has been broken ever
since I added it in 2016, which saddens me. I guess nobody else
uses it or, like me, they happen to also have a /usr/bin/env
symlink.

Thanks for the report. I can't reproduce this failure.
I've successfully built[0] strace@4.24 five times so far, on a
modest 4-core x86-64 machine. All builds are bit-identical.
Does disabling build and/or test parallelism make a difference?

MySQL demands boost@1.59.0, and lying about it no longer works:
sql/item_geofunc_internal.cc: In function ‘void handle_gis_exception(const char*)’:

ng0, Ricardo,
I went on holiday and forgot about this bug. A healthy sign.
Here's the straightforward fix to unbreak the current build.
I suggest we get 5.x working soon (I'll bump it to 5.7.23 if this fix
is acceptable) and update to 8.x later, when/if somebody's willing to
work on it. I'm not.
Kind regards,

I noticed this yesterday, too. In the meantime, I've tried
updating MySQL to 5.7.22 (one never knows) and poking at some
random bits but that didn't help.

There's actually an error message[0]. Did it not show up in your
logs? I'd consider that a bug too.
If I had to guess I'd say that a GCC bump's to blame. Or maybe
Boost, though that seems unlikely.
Unfortunately, I also don't have the time to debug this now or
indeed the next month.
Kind regards,

* bug#31652: Use of ‘keymap’ vs. ‘layout’ in manual

Guix,
Grepping the manual for ‘keyboard layout’ will get you to section
6.1.4.1 (setting the layout temporarily during installation using
loadkeys), but not 6.2.7.1 where you might learn about using
console-keymap-service to make the change permanent.
This bug is a reminder to myself to replace at least one
occurrence of ‘keymap’ with the common term.
Kind regards,

Do note that I'm not suggesting doing so in general; just in the case of
bzip2 where that rule does historically hold. If that ever changes, so
will the ‘1.0’ assumption.
(I did substitute ‘version’ for the ‘version-major+minor’ I actually
used for... simplicity, I guess, which was probably ill advised.)

I wasn't aware of such an elegant possibility. A perfect fit IMO :-)

How about symlinking to (string-append ... version) directly?
Seems more robust & worked fine when I tried it, I think.™

It depends only on the contents. This allows us to use a list of
different URIs (see the lsof package for an example) or try many
different mirror://s as long as they serve the right file.
> Should I change the hash in virtualization.scm?
In general: yes, but not without prior investigation.
The server might be serving a temporary error page instead of a usable
tarball (SF.net is currently notorious for doing so), or the tarball
might have been updated in-place (and you'll have to manually diff the
contents to make sure it's legitimate), or it might just be a problem
with your network, or...
Pushing a hash update without explanation in the commit message will
result in lots of spam from people like me. Avoid that.

The attached patch solves this by simply updating usb.ids to the latest
revision.

If those dates are at all reliable, we're now downloading a very old

I've not actually been following this thread so I don't know what that

Yup, that's about as far as I got before giving up and submitting to the
wisdom of the crowd. We need someone who knows something — anything —
about man pages, or someone who can reproduce this on another distro. I
had no luck searching for similar bug reports.
...or do you mean with the knot.conf page *specifically*, as opposed to
the rofi one? Is your suspicion based on something you saw in there?
It's not the .gz part: opening the uncompressed page with man directly
has the same result.

For the record: apparently this doesn't happen on Debian, according to
some fellow on IRC named ‘civodul’. There goes my brief hope that this
was an (exclusively) upstream problem after all.

Guix,
Perhaps he's just getting old, but our man has a tendency to forget
where he was, start over from the beginning, and repeat himself several
times:
$ guix package -i knot rofi
$ man 5 knot.conf | grep -E '^(NAME|DESCRIPTION)'
NAME
DESCRIPTION
NAME
DESCRIPTION
NAME
DESCRIPTION
NAME

NAME
$
There's also some stderr...
<standard input>:25: error: end of file while defining macro
`UNINDENT'
...but I think that's just a symptom of the input being cut short; man
rofi(1) prints no such error yet suffers the same fate.
The affected man pages themselves are not truncated, nor do they repeat:
$ zgrep '\.SH' `man -w knot.conf`

I started ‘guix lint’ after my first message too; with some luck it will
(eventually...) complete.

Agreed, I think.
I don't see how defaulting to ‘...${VCS_TYPE}-checkout’ ever makes sense
or saves effort.
We should be able to improve the quality of these guesses: the
repository URI is about as likely to be foo://bar/<package>... as a
regular tarball URI.
Or we make a file-name mandatory for certain methods.

Guix,
[Opening a new bug for these, rather than further overloading #29591.]
I'm celebrating the new Guix web with a quick and certainly incomplete
sweep for dead links in the HTML manual at gnu.org. I think (though I
have no data to back this up) that a significant number of newer users
are far more likely to use this version than any copy shipped with Guix.
Young people and their webs and all that.
So far, I've found the following:
- Defining Packages[0]:
“GNU configuration triplets” is broken.
It points inside the Guix manual, not autoconf's.
- Package Management[1]:
“The Emacs-Guix Reference Manual” is broken.
It points to a URI with duplicate ‘/index.html’s.
- Using the Offload Facility[2]:
“Converting keys” points to #Converting-keys, the target site uses
#Converting%20keys. I don't know who's right. The page still loads
so the user can navigate manually, but it would still be nice to fix.
- Formatting Code[3]:
Similarly points to ‘index.html/Development.html’ when it should use
only ‘Development.html’.
- Networking Services[4]:
“lsh-make-seed” and “lshd basics” also use bad anchors, so the user
has to search and scroll.
- The Perfect Setup[5]:
“Introduction in the Geiser User Manual” is a broken link.
- Continuous Integration[6]:
“Associations Lists in GNU Guile Reference Manual” is broken.
It points inside the Guix manual, not Guile's.
- Mapped Devices[7]:
“Translators in The GNU Hurd Reference Manual” is broken.
It points inside the Guix manual, not The Hurd's.
- Documentation[8]:
“Getting Started in Info: An Introduction” is broken.
Even without any Texinfo knowledge, I thought this would be easy to
quickly fix myself. I had no such luck.
Kind regards,
T G-R

Why not throw SIZE into this mix as well?
When building without ‘--image-size’ (the default nowadays), it's a
function of the exact size of the entire graph and reasonably sensitive
to most kinds of input changes.

That is unfortunate, but a best-effort heuristic will do.

I agree completely. I've become so used to dd'ing ISOs to USB drives
that I've come to think *only* in terms of fake discs, but you're right.
I chose ‘image’ reluctantly, because my first ideas (‘installer’, ‘vm’)
were even less relevant: this label's used for all disc images. Oh well.
We could choose the worst and ugliest label possible: that'd compel
someone to fix this!
(No. "GuixSD_image" it is.)

Guix,
[I lost most hours of sleep to this. I might ramble more than usual.]
The default label for images was recently changed[1] to "GuixSD".
While I think it's a fine label, that's also a problem: I've been using
it for years for my root partitions. And when one broke last night, I
couldn't use the GuixSD installer to rescue it.
The installer's now expects exactly one "GuixSD" partition when booting
— at least on UEFI. If the GRUB finds two, the GRUB will randomly
choose. In my case, the GRUB chose a frozen system.
(With a black screen that made debugging hell, but that's probably an
unrelated effect of the roughness of our UEFI support.)
The real problem here is that we're using a label as a UUID.
From gnu/build/vm.scm:
;; Create a tiny configuration file telling the embedded grub
;; where to load the real thing.
(call-with-output-file grub-config
(lambda (port)
(format port
"insmod part_msdos~@
search --set=root --label GuixSD~@
configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg~%")))
I'm not the first to think so, as noted in gnu/system/vm.scm:
(define root-label
;; Volume name of the root file system. Since we don't know which
device
;; will hold it, we use the volume name to find it (using the UUID would
;; be even better, but somewhat less convenient.)
(normalize-label "GuixSD"))
I like that understatement. I'm not sure how to go about creating a
reproducible almost-UUID based on the store hash and passing it to all
the right places in a reasonably non-horrible manner either, random
hacker. And it would mean even more work and testing after all the
heroic effort on the new installer image + UEFI support by Danny,
Marius, and others.
Until it does happen, I suggest we change the name to "GuixSD-image"[2].
Still fragile, but not the PR fail that ‘don't call your GuixSD file
system GuixSD or it will break GuixSD’ would be.
Zzz,
T G-R

Guix,
Knot DNS >=2.5 uses a new, LMDB-based (DNSSEC) key database format. It
ships a new ‘pykeymgr’ script to manually migrate keys from the older
JSON format.
These patches update Knot to 2.5.1, add the required python-lmdb
bindings, and throw in a real LMDB description for good measure.
I use Knot 2.5.1 & DNSSEC but haven't any 2.4-format key databases to
import. If you do, your feedback would be very welcome.
Kind regards,

Two observations:
- ‘proxy_cache_lock_timeout’ alone won't suffice to serialise requests;
‘proxy_cache_lock_age’ must also be set to an equally ridiculously
long span. Otherwise, multiple requests will still be sent to ‘guix
publish’ if they are more than 5s apart. Bleh.
(The problem then becomes that clients will stall while the file is
being cached, as explained by Mark. curl patiently waited.)
- Say client A requests a nar from ‘guix publish’ (no nginx involved).
If another client requests the same nar while A's still downloading,
‘guix publish’ will... silently drop A's connection?
I was not expecting this.

Eh. You're probably (and disappointingly) right.
When configuring my little cache, I had a clear idea of how such a cache
should work (basically, your last scenario below), then looked at the
nginx documentation to find what I had in mind. ‘proxy_cache_lock’ matched.
I should have been more pessimistic and done more testing.
Shame on me, &c. Too much other things on my mind. :-/

I can try to do some simple tests tomorrow.

A true mirror at last! Do we have the disc space for that?
And could Hydra actually handle compressing *everything*, without an
infinitely growing back-log? I don't have access to any statistics, but
I'm guessing that a fair number of package+versions are never actually
requested, and hence never compressed. This would change that.

^ This is so obviously the right solution, that it would be
disappointing if nginx really couldn't be made to do it. It already
buffers proxy responses to a temporary file anyway...

From ‘proxy_cache_lock’ [1]:
“When enabled, only one request at a time will be allowed to populate
a new cache element identified according to the proxy_cache_key
directive by passing a request to a proxied server. Other requests
of the same cache element will either wait for a response to appear
in the cache or the cache lock for this element to be released, up
to the time set by the proxy_cache_lock_timeout directive.”
Hmm. Good point: ‘to appear in the cache’, when we don't cache 404s or
even 410s.
I don't actually know.

I think this used to be the case with the previous nginx configuration,
but the recent changes pushed by Ludo' were aimed in part at preventing
that.

Are you sure? I was under the impression¹ that this is exactly what
‘proxy_cache_lock on;’ prevents. I'm no nginx guru, obviously, so please
— anyone! — correct me if I'm misguided.

Indeed! For reference, here's my cache configuration.
That's right. Now you can all¹ steal some criminally overpriced Belgian
bandwidth!
server {

}
I'm sure it's hardly optimal (or, erm, ‘good’) either but it works.

It will. Whether one is first to download from the cache after the
substitute is built is essentially random.

It matters for the reasons mentioned. It's not a ‘local Hydra’ & I have
no idea what problems you're talking about.
My problem is that every invocation of Guix already fills several
screens with Guile cache misses. Adding another warning (‘warning! the
system is working exactly as designed!’) will only serve to make those
other warnings look less silly, and I think that would be a shame.
To clarify:
- Warnings should be scary because warnings should be actionable.
There's nothing the user can or needs to do about a cache miss.
- It would be randomly shown to everyone, since this happens constantly.
- The behaviour warned about is not incorrect or abnormal.
- As already noted, it's how caching works.

Well, yeah... That's the ugly hack. :-)
It's not that your suggestion's hard to implement. In fact, it's
just one line for nginx (which it turns out I already had):
add_header X-Cache-Status $upstream_cache_status;
and 6 lines of lightly-tested Guile (attached)¹. And presto. This thing.
Doesn't mean we should.

(Side note: ‘it’ here is mirror.hydra.gnu.org, never a well-configured
Guix client.)
So to implement this, the client would need to display a ‘warning‘
message or flag sent by the substitute server, to notify the user that
their download might be slower... sometimes... by an unknown amount...
possibly?
But see, that wouldn't be true at all on my system (and surely others),
despite being set up nearly identically to Hydra. On the other hand, my
home download speed fluctuates wildly, even between simultaneous
connections to the same server. Whether or not a file is cached makes no
difference. To be told would be noise at best, misleading at worst.
I'd be against this only for those reasons, but I promise I'm not.
It's just all a bit vague, 's all, and my personal opinion is that once
the vagueness is resolved, not much will remain. But who knows.

My point is that it wouldn't be sane, and would be an ugly hack in
either system. Cuirass isn't really different from Hydra is this regard.

Oh, OK. I'm not an expert on how Hydra's set up these days, but will
assume it's not too different from my own (a fast nginx proxy_cache,
mirror.hydra.gnu.org, in front of a slower build farm, hydra.gnu.org).
Whenever you're the first to request a substitute, mirror.hydra.gnu.org
transparently forwards the request to hydra.gnu.org.
The latter has to compress the response on the fly, leading to much
slower transfer speeds. It slowly sends it back to the mirror, which
slowly sends it on to you while also saving it on disc so all subsequent
downloads will be fast — by Hydra standards – and not involve hydra.gnu.org.
Maybe you knew all this, but it's also the reason that...

...I'm afraid this makes no sense from guix's point of view.
The term ‘cache miss’ here is an implementation detail of our current
Hydra set-up, not something guix can or IMO should care about. There are
hundreds of reasons why your connection might be slow at any given time.
Guix should just tell you so (it does), not guess why. Or worse: know.
(But if others disagree, we'll have to extend the Hydra API to somehow
relay this information to the client, in the spirit of the modern Web.)
HTTP 200½: OK, fine, but it's Going to Suck.

Do you mean that *substitutes* existed, but were not yet on
mirror.hydra.gnu.org and so were silently proxied from the much slower
hydra.gnu.org?
Or did Guix fall back to downloading *source* tarballs from some slow
upstream to build locally?
(I've no access to IRC at the mo'.)

Guix,
[First debbugs post, let's hope this works.]
I've updated the Guix Wikipedia page to use the new ‘unified’ logo.
Since Wikimedia rejects our SVG, I had to resort to copy-pasting the
original image in Inkscape and saving it as a new file.
It wasn't pretty, but the new logo sure is.
