Hello Guix!
I’ve just added a new ‘--coverage’ option to ‘guix weather’. The goal
is to answer the question: “which important packages fail to build?”, or
at least, “which important packages have no substitutes?”. I believe
this is what we want to know in particular to determine whether a branch
can be merged. Demonstration:

What we see here is that on current master, kcoreaddons and (presumably)
the 115 packages that depend on it¹ have no substitutes. Likewise for
qgpgme and its 76 dependents.
As it turns out, these two packages fail to build:
https://berlin.guixsd.org/log/8v69bzi29rla9q952ajgpsvsb7k955l6-kcoreaddons-5.49.0
https://berlin.guixsd.org/log/rgvjzck002diandc1nhkw0dy1p9zqaw2-qgpgme-1.11.1
If you fix them, you’ll unlock no less than 191 packages and surely
fellow hackers will acclaim you when you arrive at the Guix Days. :-)
In some cases, like ‘ocaml4.02-ppx-deriving’, it seems the package
simply hasn’t been built, for obscure reasons that build farm admins
should investigate.
Anyway, I think we should start looking at info, in particular so we can
finally get our act together and merge ‘staging’!
Feedback welcome!
Ludo’.
¹ Why do kcoreaddons and qgpgme appear twice? Because there are two
distinct (in the sense of ‘eq?’) package objects for each of these,
even though they map to the same derivation. The redundant package is
introduced by ‘package-input-rewriting’ in kde-frameworks.scm. Oh well!

Very nice! This will be very useful.

I just fixed the qgpgme test failure on master and staging.

As an aside, should Icecat be on this list? I keep having to use "guix package
--do-not-upgrade=icecat -u", because Icecat takes forever to build, and
I'm not certain that I have enough memory to build it.
However,
#BEGIN_SRC sh
icecat --version
#END_SRC
#+:RESULTS:
GNU IceCat 60.3.0
BUT why does guix package -u try to rebuild Icecat?
#BEGIN_SRC sh
guix package -u
guix package: warning: package 'jmacs' no longer exists
substitute: updating substitutes from 'https://ci.guix.info'... 100.0%
building /gnu/store/r583x6jd6qlb7im42c0awmj6jvi1g13c-icecat-60.3.0-gnu1.drv...
#END_SRC
P.S. jmacs is my attempt to have a "custom" Emacs. It's basically Emacs
with additional modules installed.
Thanks,
Joshua

Hi,
I think icecat is ok. I’m probably wrong about this but what I understand is that icecat is being rebuilt after the rust bootstrap got merged. Upgrading icecat now requires building several versions of the rust compiler. I hope a substitute becomes available soon since it really does take a long time. I have a pretty nice set of hardware and it took nearly a day. I can’t imagine on an older machine.

Hi Joshua,
> As an aside, should Icecat be on this list?
This list is generated automatically. Icecat is a leaf package —
nothing else depends on it.

Having a name and a version is not sufficient. Guix is only concerned
with derivations and their contents. So if any dependency of Icecat has
changed this causes a rebuild of Icecat, even if you already happen to
have a different variant of it that shares the name and version string.

It’s true that some leaf packages are “more important” than others, and
IceCat is one of them, but we usually check for these manually.
This list is about giving an overview of the state of the whole package
collection.
