I agree, I've wanted to help but between substitutes not being there for a lot of costly packages (llvm/mesa comes to mind) and not knowing in advance what failures there are doesn't help. > Since the bootstrapping seems to have stabilised, that would allow more > people to work on packages closer to the leaves, since most of what > currently builds would be available as substitutes from the build farm > without everybody needing to go through a one-week compilation project. > > Here is my eclectic selection of packages I would add to the job: > - guix (builds) > - icecat (builds) > - ungoogled-chromium (probably also builds) > - openjdk (pulls in rust!, and builds) > - unison (pulls in ocaml, and builds) > - calibre (pulls in qt@5 and python; the former builds, the latter still > has some problems, among which the python bindings to qt, and packages > failing their tests even when updating to the latest release) > - pandoc (pulls in ghc, which currently fails its tests @9.2.5) > Please suggest more leaf packages that exercise your favourite missing > language or application domain! I would add gdm, xfce, gnome as those are part of most people's default configuration. sway is probably another good candidate. I cannot wait to delve into gnome-shell's gjs code again!
