I realized Guix already provided "libao", as "ao" variable. However,
I don't know why it isn't "public".

I also packaged "mpfi".

Since all dependencies of "giac-xcas" are now available, I can update
the package definition.

I'm not sure about input "texlive-minimal". Debian package doesn't have
it. However, configure script checks for latex, makeindex, pdflatex and
dvips, probably so as to build documentation. OTOH, I don't think
default make dance builds documentation: it probably copies it directly
from the tarball, so it may be useless to provide the input. As a last
point, xcas itself provides a feature to print formulas as LaTeX. So,
all in all, texlive-minimal may be a propagated-input, AFAIU.

WDYT?

In any case, here are the patches. Thank you for reading so far.

Regards,

In fact it is public.  It is just that the module (gnu packages xiph)
use a different convention which is to define "public" variable with
‘define’ and to add them to the #:export list of the module, instead of
directly using ‘define-public’.  Either way is equivalent in Guile.

It depends if this feature is essential for using xcas?  If yes then
adding it as a propagated-input is still not required unless "latex,
makeindex, ..." are used using the PATH which could not be the case
since those programs are checked at configure time.

WDYT?

Looks good to me.  guix lint is happy and the build is reproducible.  I
have modified the indentation to follow our “custom” Emacs rules.  Here
is the updated patch.

Is there a particular reason for not patching this within the
‘arguments’ field?  Otherwise everything looks good to me.

Here is an updated patch with the suggested change and minor formatting
fixes.

OK. Understood.

I removed perl, tcsh, texlive-minimal as inputs, and tried

  guix environment --ad-hoc texlive giac-xcas --fallback -- xcas

I could preview the sheet using LaTeX. However, I sometimes got

  sh: pstopnm: command not found
  sh: pnmtopng: command not found

Not sure it is related.

Also, texlive-minimal is still in the closure, probably due to some
other input, so it doesn't reduce the size of the package.

Funnily, I broke Emacs indentation on purpose because other package
definitions in the file were disagreeing with it. I should have trusted
good ole Emacs.

This is because the test issue is related to a given release, i.e.,
a given `source' field. OTOH, `arguments' are for control over the build
process, which is not going to change anytime soon.

To put it differently, I put the temporary fix in `snippet' and the
persistent one in `arguments'.

Moreover, you suggest to merge the two fixes into a single phase named
`fix-makefiles', which, albeit correct, is less accurate than
`patch-bin-cp'.

Anyway, this is just nitpicking; I'm fine with all the changes you made.

> Thanks and welcome!

Thank you for the review.

with texlive-minimal as input, and without texlive in the environment do
you get some errors?

OK, so no real benefit.  :)

Yeah it is a known problem.  Some people don't use Emacs so they are
likely to introduce indentation mistakes.  Emacs + rules from
.dir-locals.el is our reference indentation (minor some emacs bugs).

OK, I understand what was the intention.  However I don't think we
usually make this sort of distinction.

The ‘arguments’ field is for general purpose build customization,
whereas The ‘snippet’ field in origin is meant for removing/modifying
parts of the code that don't respect GNU FSDG.

It is done this way so that when the user is doing ‘guix build --source
PACKAGE’ to get the tarball, a freed version is provided instead of the
one from upstream.

I think you are right, could you send an updated patch with two separate
phases?  Sorry I love nitpicking.  ;)

Yes, I do. The errors are the same

  sh: pstopnm: command not found
  sh: pnmtopng: command not found

They do not appear with `netpbm' in the environment, so I think
everything is fine, after all.

Point taken. Thank you for the explanation.

Here is the new patch.
