Freezing core-updates soon

Freezing core-updates soon

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi!

I would like to declare ‘core-updates’ frozen in 1 or 2 days so we can
have Hydra build it all and merge it afterwards.

Thoughts?

If there’s a big update you’d like to make (Python anyone?), now is
the time!

Will this include the patches to make gtk respect the GUIX_GTK{2,3}_PATH
variables?

I thought this branch had been built by Hydra and was ready to merge in
master, no?  Mark?

Yes, it's ready to merge.

I went ahead and cherry-picked the two patches to master.

I don't have the time to do it, but if anyone would like to bump Ruby
to 2.3.0 and keep the 2.2.4 version hanging around in another variable
like the other old versions, that would be cool. :)

I had some trouble downloading dependencies because of inability to 
download sources e.g. http://graphviz.org/ seems to be down. Ruby seems 
to build though, can we just review as normal and then push to core-updates?

I did rebuild all the packages in ruby.scm, and out of these about 1/3 
of packages failed to build, because at least these three packages' 
tests fail
* yard
* power_assert
* minitest_tu_shim

The first two presumably will be fixed upstream soon, but the third 
hasn't seen a release since Aug 2013, and the homepage listed on 
rubygems is dead. I guess we just have to encourage the only package we 
have packaged that uses tu_shim (term-ansicolor) to stop relying on it.

Thanks,
ben

OK, thanks for testing this thoroughly.  It would be good to fix these 3
packages sometime before core-updates is merged.

This seems to be shared with 2.2.  Is it possible to avoid duplication
using something like:

  (define ruby
    (package
      (inherit ruby-2.2)
      (version "2.3.4")
      ;; …
      ))

?

In the attached patches I've disabled the failing test in both yard and 
power_assert. There's no fix for yard in upstream. For power_assert 
there is a fix, but unfortunately it seems Ruby packages cannot be 
patched in the usual way because .gem files are archives of archives so 
the unpacking/patch/repacking fails. I guess we fix that in future.

Turns out fixing minitest_tu_shim (and others) was easier than I thought 
as the problem was some hardcoded ruby 2.2 paths in package definitions. 
I created a new procedure to remove the hard-coding so the update to 2.4 
will work too, WDYT?

After all that, everything in gnu/packages/ruby.scm builds.

[..]

Yes, I did this but forgot to delete some/most duplication. Now after 
the final patch ruby-2.2 inherits from ruby (not vice-versa as you 
suggest) as this was the previous convention in ruby.scm. I checked that 
the hashes in the store names for ruby 2.2, 2.1 and 1.8 did not change 
after applying the patch.

Better? Thanks for the review.

From 27fea9884bae4aadb4bc6981c996ddbcf54adee0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Ben Woodcroft <donttrustben@gmail.com>
Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2016 17:29:39 +1000
Subject: [PATCH 3/4] ruby: Abstract out path to GEM_HOME.

Previously paths to the GEM_HOME of certain Ruby packages were
hard-coded, so packages failed to build when Ruby was updated to 2.3.0.

* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (gem-home): New procedure.
* gnu/packages/ruby.scm (ruby-metaclass, ruby-instantiator,
ruby-introspection, ruby-mocha, ruby-minitest-tu-shim): Use it.

I overlooked this part before but: (1) this looks weird (the spaces
around ‘=’ suggest it’s Makefile syntax, not shell syntax), and (2) we
shouldn’t use the bundled libffi.

How much work would it be to fix #2?  It would be awesome if you could
do that.  Sorry for the extra work!

AFAICS all of ‘arguments’ can be omitted once the above libffi
substitution is removed.

(If it there’s still a need for different phases, it should use
‘substitute-keyword-arguments’ to modify only #:phases, and then
‘modify-phases’ rather than ‘alist-cons-before’.)

Could you send an updated patch, hopefully the last one?  :-)

Thanks,
Ludo’.

All good, was easy to fix. I also removed it from ruby-2.2 which bundles 
the same libffi version.

However, it seems 11 rubygems are also bundled. To unbundle these and 
deal with the circular dependencies, I reckon we should create a new 
ruby-base package that removes the bundled gems, then we package the 11 
gems and their dependencies using ruby-base, and the 'ruby' package then 
inherits from ruby-base but also propagates the 11 gems. However I don't 
think I have time to implement this right now, especially since most of 
the 11 haven't been packaged by us yet and core-updates is to be merged 
soon.

So do we merge this update as-is or wait for a more perfect solution?

Thanks for the tip, but ruby-2.2 is a now simple inherit.

Please feel free to suggest further changes if you spot anything further.

Thanks for the review,

I should have mentioned it before, but could you move the removal to a
‘snippet’ in the origin?

This is not critical, so if you feel like you won’t have time now, we
can leave that for later.

Otherwise the patch is OK for ‘core-updates’.

LGTM.

However, ultimately, we should pass the Ruby version as a keyword
parameter on the build side or have a build-side procedure akin to
‘get-python-version’ in python-build-system.scm (I’d prefer the former.)

That way, phases could query the version number of the Ruby that’s
actually used instead of using the version number of whatever variant
the global ‘ruby’ variable refers to.  This would allow users to simply
change the “ruby” input of a package and have it automatically work with
the new package.

Does that make sense?

This can always be done after the ‘core-updates’ merge, no rush.

OK then. I reckon we should provide a procedure to get to the lib/ 
directory as well, based on the upstream name property too. Then we can 
use it for the require test too.

On the python front, I count python, python2 and python-setuptools.

On the `guix refresh -t gnu` front, I see gnutls, libgpg-error, libtasn1,
libgcrypt and gettext

Also on the "massive rebuild list," off the top of my head, is tzdata

I see.

Could you look into it, starting with the GNU updates?  Once you’re
done, we’ll ask Hydra to rebuild the branch (changes to core-updates do
not automatically trigger Hydra, to reduce load.)

TIA!  :-)

Sure. I'm currently rebuilding to "mc" after updating tzdata (since my
country can't get our timezones set more than a few months in advance...),
but then I'll get right on the gnu ones.

By comparison, the python set "only" has a rebuild cost of ~750 packages.

Hydra will start building all of ‘core-updates’ soon.  Hopefully we can
merge in a few days.

On core-updates, automake failed its test suite on both x86_64 and i686,
leading to over 2000 dependency failures.

util-linux test failure

[Ludovic Courtès]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2519 bytes --]

Hi!

util-linux had two test failures on i686.  From
<http://hydra.gnu.org/build/949334/nixlog/2/raw>:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
        fdisk: invalid input tests            ...  FAILED (fdisk/oddinput)

[...]

         misc: rev                            ...  OK
         misc: setarch                        ...  FAILED (misc/setarch)

[...]

---------------------------------------------------------------------
  2 tests of 170 FAILED

Makefile:12013: recipe for target 'check-local-tests' failed

make[3]: Leaving directory '/tmp/guix-build-util-linux-2.27.drv-0/util-linux-2.27'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

On my laptop, commit v0.9.0-1181-gafe9f40, I’ve successfully run:

  ./pre-inst-env guix build util-linux -K -s i686-linux --rounds=3

which leads:

  /gnu/store/l1v12p64hv4373m1z7a16ar9s5cw1lwi-util-linux-2.27
  SHA256: 18axyw2qhr7sq1jd15r6l02nkx9rijzws0xqlcl07d95v8xwbwj7

However, I’ve noticed that these tests consume quite few tens of MB in
disk images:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./ts/libfdisk/gpt:27:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/fdisk/oddinput:28:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/fdisk/bsd:89:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/fdisk/gpt:44:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/fdisk/mbr-dos-mode:52:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/fdisk/mbr-nondos-mode:48:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 20)	# 20 MiB
./ts/fdisk/id:29:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/fdisk/mbr-sort:50:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 20)	# 20 MiB
./ts/fdisk/sunlabel:40:TEST_IMAGE_NAME=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/libmount/context-py:140:img=$(ts_image_init)
./ts/libmount/context:138:img=$(ts_image_init)
./ts/losetup/losetup:42:BACKFILE=$(ts_image_init 10)
./ts/mount/regfile:19:IMAGE=$(ts_image_init)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So the fdisk test failure above could well be due to that.

The ‘setarch’ failure is less clear.  It could be due to an old kernel
that does not support this personality(2) call on the host machine.

I’ve restarted the build from hydra.gnu.org, where it was scheduled on
hydra.gnunet.org, and it passed this time (with the same content hash as
above.)

So we can keep building ‘core-updates’.  :-)

What do you think of moving 'broken-tarball-fetch' from
gnu/packages/engineering.scm to an utility library?

What about moving it to (guix packages), probably under the name
‘url-fetch/tarbomb’ to clarify the intent?

This can be done in master; no rebuild involved.

Thanks,

OK, thanks. Will do it.
