...great! I was just doing the exact same thing. :-D

The commit message must also mention new native-inputs, phases, etc.

Even though these weren't sorted to begin with, it would be nice to do
so now.

Nitpick: as the sources do contain an actual ‘autogen.sh’ — which we're
not calling — I'd just call this ‘bootstrap’ or so. Avoids confusion.

> +                 (lambda* (#:key inputs #:allow-other-keys)

It looks like something went wrong with the indentation of this block.
The ‘(’ of ‘(lambda’ should be under the first ‘d’ of ‘(add-after’.

> + ;; these files are symlinks to /usr and cannot be used.

Another nitpick: full-line comment, so ‘;; These’.

I'd move all of this to a separate snippet.
These files can cause pain when building manually, too.

Ah, so this is what I was hunting down when your mail appeared.
Good catch!

I've taken the liberty to attach my patch[1] as well; it illustrates
some of the points mentioned above. Do with it what you will... :-)

Thanks!

[1]: Audience question, somewhat: ‘guix lint’ complains that

  hexchat@2.12.4: 'glib:bin' should probably be a native input

If no-one disagrees I'll dig up why & add it in a follow-up.

What's the policy about using patches, snippet or build phases? I was
recently asked to move code from snippet to build phase because it did
not address a security issue or remove non free or bundled components,
but I can't find anything documenting the choice we should make.

I don't know if we have a real "policy"; here are my thoughts.

Guix is a useful tool for acquiring free software source code to be used
outside of Guix, with `guix build --source`. Origin snippets and patches
affect the result of `guix build --source`.

Snippets are necessary for removing non-free bits from what is provided
by `guix build --source`. Without this, I think we'd run afoul of the
free system distribution guidelines (FSDG).

Then there are changes we make in order to port software to Guix or make
other relatively unimportant changes. If they can be done with a
sed-like / regex substitution, we do them in build phases. It's helpful
to keep them in Scheme, and we don't want to distribute them via `guix
build --source`.

Patches are for things that are difficult / opaque to do with a sed-like
tool. They are applied to the result of `guix build --source`. I also
like using patches when copying changes from upstream; the provenance of
the change can be made clear in the patch annotation. For this reason,
most of the security updates I push use patches, even if they are
one-liners. Maybe these changes aren't always helpful for users of `guix
build --source`, but I try to limit them to important bug-fixes.

I'm curious to hear others' thoughts on this subject!

Ah, I never considered this as a Guix-related fix: shipping symlinks to
/usr might happen to work on some (?) other systems, but it's obviously
not how autotools should be used.

We should serve users with a --source tarball that is either already
bootstrapped or ready to be, not in some dead-end third state.

The correct answer in either case is, of course: ‘it's a silly detail,
Tobias’.

Kind regards,

T G-R
