[bug#49828] [PATCH 00/20] Add minetest mods

[Maxime Devos]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3015 bytes --]

Hi Guix,

This patch series adds a bunch of Minetest mods, but first,
it patches Minetest such that the mods will actually be found.
An importer for Minetest mods from ContentDB
(https://content.minetest.net) is included as well.

I have verified:

  * "guix lint" doesn't find any issues,
    except ‘no updated found for ...’ and some incorrect
    ‘... can be upgraded to’.

  * the source code doesn't appear to contain any malware

  * the license information

  * "./pre-inst-env guix build ALL-THE-NEW-PACKAGES" succeeds

  * "make check 'TESTS=tests/contentdb.scm'" succeeds

I've also constructed an environment (./pre-inst-env guix environment --ad-hoc)
containing all the mods and minetest, started minetest, created a new world,
enabled all the mods, and placed some random nodes and tried out "worldedit".
This seems to work, but I did not yet try out every mod.

I also constructed an environment with only "minetest" and tried out the
built-in ContentDB installer.  It still appears to work.

(The actual patches will be sent once debbugs gives me an issue number)

  gnu: minetest: Respect --without-tests.
  gnu: minetest: Search for mods in MINETEST_MOD_PATH.
  gnu: minetest: New package module.

+Subject: [PATCH] Add environment variable MINETEST_MOD_PATH
+
+This adds an environment variable MINETEST_MOD_PATH.
+When it exists, Minetest will look there for mods
+in addition to ~/.minetest/mods/.
+
+This patch as-is is not yet ready for upstream, because:
+
+  * the GUI will only display mods in MINETEST_MOD_PATH
+    or mods in ~/.minetest/mods, it won't combine the two
+
+  * the GUI for installing mods from ContentDB is disabled
+    when MINETEST_MOD_PATH is set, because otherwise Minetest
+    would try to install mods in the store.
+
+  * MINETEST_MOD_PATH can only have a single component

[bug#49828] [PATCH 03/20] gnu: minetest: New package module.

[Maxime Devos]

Aside from the 'minetest-topic' procedure which will be used
for the 'home-page' field of some packages, this module is
currently empty.  The 'contentdb' importer defined in the
following patches will be used to populate this module.

* gnu/packages/minetest.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.

For context, (%current-target-system) is used because tests only work
in native builds.  If this can't be reflected in the value of tests?,
we should have both checks, imo.

'cmake-cross-build' sets '#:tests?' to #f by default, so I don't think
both checks are needed.

These two are fine for a "Guix-only" patch, although I do think we
should still read ~/.minetest/mods for backwards compatibility.

This one seems kinda arbitrary, though, and does not fit well with
MINETEST_SUBGAME_PATH.

Here, I would instead use an std::istringstream together with
std::getline(<>, <>, ':') to get the components of MINETEST_MOD_PATH
and insert each of them.  Either that or copy whatever is used for
MINETEST_SUBGAME_PATH.

What are these modpaths used for?  For mod installation or for querying
mod existence?  If it's the former, you could leave them as-is, similar
to how elpa stays enabled in Emacs.

~/.minetest/mods is still read when MINETEST_MOD_PATH is unset.
MINETEST_MOD_PATH is only set when some mod is actually installed.
So backwards compatibility should be ok.

Yes, I know.  I didn't know how to adjust pkgmgr.lua and dlg_contentstore.lua
to support multiple components, though I have an idea now to try.

Minetest has a class 'Strfnd' supporting iteration.  Using that,
it should be easy to allow MINETEST_MOD_PATH to contain ":" seperators.
However, the GUI client code (pkgmgr.lua)
uses some other logic for determining which mods exists, and currently,
that logic does not support ":" separators.

It is only used by the GUI.  The GUI looks in the directory returned by
"get_modpath" for two things:

(1) to determine which mods exist (and to find their descriptions, their
    dependency list, screenshots ...).  Only the mods that exist there
    can be enabled.

(2) to determine where mods must be installed when using Minetest's
    built-in installer.

Greetings,
Maxime.

I mean in the sense of "have some mods in ~/.minetest/mods, that aren't
yet packaged in Guix and have the rest sit in the profile where they
belong".  Not everyone will like the the import to manifest approach
that is needed while you're waiting for review.

Hmm, how important is the GUI side here?  Can we sneek mods into it?

I see.  Is this the same GUI for all parts or different GUIs?  I think
if we can handle the world creation parts, everything should be fine,
no?

[bug#49828] [PATCH 05/20] build-system: minetest: Don't retain references to "bash-minimal".

[Leo Prikler]

Hi,

I'd merge this and 04/20 into a single patch.  04/20 does of its own
give a good incentive as to why a new build system is to be used (this
could instead be handled by the importer), with this phase added it
makes slightly more sense.

OTOH, perhaps we shouldn't install those shell scripts in the first
place?  Perhaps we can instead make the importer generate packages
based directly on copy-build-system, in which those static strings are
already evaluated.  WDYT?

[bug#49828] [PATCH 02/20] gnu: minetest: Search for mods in MINETEST_MOD_PATH.

[Maxime Devos]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 4124 bytes --]

Hi,

I've modified this patch such that:

  * the GUI will display mods in MINETEST_MOD_PATH as well as
    mods in ~/.minetest/mods

  * the built-in installer works even if MINETEST_MOD_PATH is set

  * MINETEST_MOD_PATH can contain multiple components

Please tell if there are other issues

I'll look into the upstream procedure for submitting patches.

All three points should be addresed by the new patch.

The GUI side is very important.  All mods are disabled by default,
and in the GUI you need to choose which mods to enable.  If the GUI
doesn't know about the existence of the mod, then the mod cannot be
enabled.

The ‘mod selecter’ (1) and installer (2) have separate graphical interfaces,
but they use some common code 'pkgmgr.lua'.  In the new patch, 'get_modpath()'
(a string) is where mods should be installed by the built-in installer,
and 'get_modpaths()' (a list of strings) is where mods can be found.
Both interfaces work with the new patch.

Greetings,
Maxime.

[bug#49828] [PATCH 02/20] gnu: minetest: Search for mods in MINETEST_MOD_PATH.

This line is a bit long.  Even if might look a little weird, I think
it's better split in three.

Try Strfnd mod_search_paths{modpath}.  The normal bracket style
confuses C++, because it can also be parsed as a function declaration.

This is a somewhat weird interface imo.  I think core.get_modpath
should be the first element of core.get_modpaths and documented in that
way, so that any GUI that deals with "all known mods" needs to simply
call the latter, whereas any GUI that deals with installing can
comfortably use either the former or whatever Lua has for car.  WDYT?

Otherwise LGTM.

As an argument for having a 'minetest-mod-build-system', consider
some ways 'minetest-mod-build-system' could be improved in the future:

  * a phase could be added to minimise PNG images (e.g. using 'optipng')
  * likewise, for lua code
  * some basic tests could be added (e.g. creating a new world and
    loading the mod, testing that Minetest doesn't raise an error during
    mod loading)

Also, having "#:install-plan '(("." "share/minetest/mods/the-mod-name"))"
appear in every package definition seems rather repetitive to me.

The idea behind "04/20" and "05/20" being separate patches, is to start
with a basic "minetest-mod-build-system" and gradually improve it.
The small improvements (currently only one, i.e., 05/20) could be reviewed
separately from each other and whether there should be a
"minetest-mod-build-system" at all.

E.g., see attached a patch that sets #:allowed-references '(), ensuring
nothing sneaks into the closure.  Another change I'm thinking of, is including
only "tar", "gzip" and the like as implicit inputs, and not "bash" or "coreutils",
though that's probably useless if shebang patching has been disabled.

Directly using 'copy-build-system' makes it more difficult to make the
improvements listed above. I don't know what you mean with ‘in which those
static strings are already evaluated’ -- what are ‘those static strings’ here?

I suppose it is possible to exclude shell scripts from installation, but
just installing everything (and disabling shebang patching) seems simpler.

Greetings,
Maxime.

Of course there's more that can be done here, but this just reaffirms
my earlier point, that the build system on its own as it is in 04/20
looks rather unfinished.  I'd personally prefer introducing it as one
whole as it gives a bigger picture of the whole thing rather than
digging into every detail.

> Also, having "#:install-plan '(("." "share/minetest/mods/the-mod-
> name"))"

Perhaps, but it's not like there aren't other groups of things that can
be implemented trivially in terms of copy-build-system.

See above.

IMO that patch should also be merged "as one" with the others.

‘Those static strings’ are exactly "the-mod-name" in

I'm still not quite convinced, that whatever improvements you seem
there to be can't be made by using a good enough include regexp.

Likewise leaving shell references in there and using plain copy-build-
system would be simpler than making a new build system, wouldn't it?  I
don't think that's a good reason not to make a proper install plan.

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 567 bytes --]

Hi,

The attached patch squashes "PATCH 04" and "PATCH 05" together
and extends the build system.  It now has an install plan only installing
what's necessary (Lua code, PNG images, some configuration files ...),
a 'check' build phase verifying Minetest can actually load the mod,
and a 'minimise-png' phase minimising PNG images.

The mod name for ‘(("." "share/minetest/mods/the-mod-name"))’ can now
be determined exactly in most cases (Minetest doesn't really care but
the directory name can appear in the GUI in some cases).

Greetings,
Maxime.

This appears a little confusing.  On first glance, it does not seem to
allow overriding e.g. #:phases, but on a second look using `apply'
together with shallowly substituted arguments would enable that.  The
only thing that's missing imo is that #:implicit-inputs? is not
honoured for (standard-minetest-packages) -- I think you might want to
rectify that.

Otherwise looks pretty good to me.

'copy-build-system' does not export 'install', so I have to use '@@' here.
Modifying 'copy-build-system' to export 'install' would presumably entail
a many rebuilds.

I modified the patch to move more things into 'substitute-keyword-arguments'
to reduce confusion.

I modified 'lower-mod' to _not_ add 'standard-minetest-packages' to
'native-inputs' when #:implicit-inputs? is false, though I don't see
why a package definition for a Minetest mod would do that.

I also found a spellig bug ("to minimisation" -> "to minimise") which
is now fixed.

btw, I submitted the "MINETEST_MOD_PATH" patch upstream, with your suggestion
for "{std::string(...)}" construction:
<https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/11515>.

Greetings,
Maxime.

I think the thing that's usually done here is fetching through
%standard-phases.
I.e. (define copy:install (assoc-ref copy-build-system:%standard-phases 
'install))

In that case fine, but make a note to move the variable and procedure
over to (guix build utils).

The new lower-mod mostly LGTM, but

should be `target' imho.  What if the mod e.g. actually builds a shared
object and somehow uses Lua's very dynamic FFI to load it?  (Even if
that's not currently possible, it might be in the future).  Setting it
to #f by default OTOH sounds very reasonable to me.

Nice, perhaps in 5.5 we will be able to enjoy this out-of-the-box.

I made a note.

'target' is set by 'make-bag' in (guix build-system), so if the code above
is made

    ((#:target target #f) target)

then #:target will always be set to some triplet.  Mostly harmless, but a
bit a waste of disk space since this leads to (slightly) different derivations
depending on the value of "target".

I don't think any mods use Lua's FFI, but some mods use 'os.execute',
which takes a file name referring to an executable, which might need to be
absolutised in Guix, and therefore some mods are architecture-dependent.

It dropped the ((#:target target #f) #f).  I noticed "#:implicit-cross-inputs?"
wasn't set to #f.  That has been corrected as well.

Greetings,
Maxime.

I think deduplication should take care of that, but yeah.

Good catch.  

Since my only remaining complaint is somewhat minor, you don't need to
resend this patch; I'll have a look at the importer later (or maybe
someone else gets to do that in between), but I won't cover the package
definitions for the mods.  If they work for you and you checked the
licenses, they're probably going to be fine.

What is the "commit id"?  Is it the hash?  A tag?  Anything that
resolves to a commit?

Also, since ContentDB sounds fairly generic (a database of content?),
perhaps we ought to call this the "minetest" importer instead?

This comment and some others like it seem to simply be repeating
already present information.  Is there a use for them?  Should we
instead provide a third argument on every field to verify/enforce the
type?

Is there a reason for author and name to be separate keys?  For me it
makes more sense to take AUTHOR/NAME as a singular search string from
users and then perform queries based on that.  If ContentDB allows
searching, we might also resolve NAME to a singular package where
possible and otherwise error out, telling the user to choose one.

The link mentions, that ContentDB now supports all SPDX identifiers. 
Do we have a SPDX->Guix converter lying around in some other importer
that we could use as default case here (especially w.r.t. "or later")

WDYT?

Hi,

When the mod is being ‘built’ in Guix, the 'check' phase will start Minetest
with a new world where the mod and its dependencies are activated.  It is verified
there are no errors in the log.  That should help with detecting breakage.
It actually detected some breakage: ".mts" files were not being installed, leading
to errors at load time.  This is fixed now.

To keep in sync, there is "guix refresh minetest-MODA minetest-MODB ..." which
can automatically upgrade packages to the latest version.  It currently doesn't
know about ContentDB however, so it has to fall-back to the generic updaters
which do not appear to work well with Minetest mods:

gnu/packages/minetest.scm:345:13: 1.3 is already the latest version of minetest-worldedit
gnu/packages/minetest.scm:365:2: warning: no updater for minetest-unifieddyes
gnu/packages/minetest.scm:173:2: warning: no updater for minetest-mobs
gnu/packages/minetest.scm:143:13: minetest-mesecons would be upgraded from 1.2.1-0.db58797 to 2017.03.05
   ^ this is actually a downgrade IIRC
gnu/packages/minetest.scm:227:2: warning: no updater for minetest-pipeworks

Hopefully that can be improved in the future (maybe keep the "release date" in
the 'properties' field of the Guix package and use that to determine if an update
is available?).

The ContentDB->guix importer handles dependencies.  It reads the dependencies
from ContentDB (with the /api/packages/AUTHOR/NAME/dependencies/ API) and
adds the hard dependencies to 'propagated-inputs', so "minetest-mobs-animal"
has "minetest-mobs" in its 'propagated-inputs'.  See also the 'check' phase
mentioned above.

In the original patch series I sent, ContentDB was indeed disabled completely when
guix-installed mods are present.  But with the revised patch (using the MINETEST_MOD_PATH
patch I submitted <https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/11515>), this is no
longer the case --- ContentDB and Guix can be used together.

I tested installing mods with both Minetest's built-in installer and guix.  They can
be used together.

ContentDB and mods installed with guix can be used together with the revised patches.
It would be useful though to add some kind of dialog or something, telling the user
that mods can be installed with guix, and how to do so.

ContentDB uses SPDX license identifiers now, and distinguishes between
GPL-N-only and GPL-N-or-later, so I adjusted the documentation appropriately.

It's the SHA-1 of the Git commit.  I changes this to ‘the commit's SHA-1’.

Technically, minetest has another mod repository as well:
<https://bower.minetest.org/>.  It's unmoderated though, and
<https://content.minetest.net> has some moderation and seems more
‘official’ (it's integrated in Minetest itself).  I replaced
(guix import contentdb) with (guix import minetest), likewise
for (guix script import minetest) and tests/minetest.scm.

I first added the ‘; natural-or-false’.  I only added the procedure
"natural-false" later.  Indeed, ‘; natural-or-false’ is redundant.
I removed the redundant ones in the revised patch.

I don't think there is need to verify types for each field.
Most aren't used by Guix.  If a type check would fail, that would
presumably mean the type check guix is incorrect (or not up-to-date).
Except for perhaps a backtrace, ill-typed fields are harmless.

Not really actually, AUTHOR tends to go togehter with NAME except for
some exceptions.  I modified the code such that AUTHOR/NAME is a single
string.  It simplified code somewhat.

ContentDB allows searching.  I wrote some a procedure 'elaborate-contentdb-name'
used by (guix scripts import contentdb) that resolves "mesecons" to "Jeija/mesecons",
using the search API and added some tests.  If there are multiple candidates,
the one with the highest ‘score’ is choosen (alternatively, --sort=downloads can
be used instead).

I tested this some more, and it appears that some mods depend on "dyes",
which is part of the default Minetest game, so I added all the mods
provided by the default (sub?)game.  The list began looking a little
long, so I replaced it with a hash table.

The list returned by 'dependency-packages' not only contains the mod
we need, but possibly also various ‘subgames’ that include that mod.
Filtering on '/name' filters out these subgames we don't need.

Also, theoretically another mod could implement the same interface.
The filtering would filter out the alternative implementations.

Anyway, I changes the implementation a bit.  It now explicitely
filters out ‘subgames’ and ‘texture packs’ using the ‘package-mod?’
procedure.  The resulting list tends to consist of only a single
element.  If it consists of multiple, the one with the highest score
(or the one with the highest download count, depending on --sort)
will be choosen (and a warning is printed).

There's a a converter in (guix import utils): spdx-string->license.
The old license identifiers appear to be removed, now only SPDX information
is available.  I modified the code to use spdx->string-license and removed
string->license.

It turns out it does not recognise GPL-N-only and GPL-N-or-later,
so I added a patch ‘import/utils: Recognise GPL-3.0-or-later and friends.’.

I tried implementing "guix refresh -t minetest ...".  It seems to work, but
requires some changes to (guix upstream) that needs some more work, so I left it
out of the revised patch set.  The refresher needs to know the author name
(or perform extra HTTP requests), so I added 'upstream-name' the package properties.

The revised patch series is attached.  It can also be found at
<https://notabug.org/maximed/guix-gnunet/src/minetest-2>.  It includes
the latest MINETEST_MOD_PATH patch.  I'll make the patch to export more things in
(guix build utils) later (for core-updates).

reetings,
Maxime.

+
+This adds an environment variable MINETEST_MOD_PATH.
+When it exists, Minetest will look there for mods
+in addition to ~/.minetest/mods/.  Mods can still be
+installed to ~/.minetest/mods/ with the built-in installer.

Subject: [PATCH 03/20] gnu: minetest: New package module.

Aside from the 'minetest-topic' procedure which will be used
for the 'home-page' field of some packages, this module is
currently empty.  The 'contentdb' importer defined in the
following patches will be used to populate this module.

* gnu/packages/minetest.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.

We usually call it the hash around here :)

If we get more of these we could label them like elpa repos, but I
don't think we'll get many third party repos with ContentDB existing.

Fair enough, gratuitous redundancy is the bigger issue here.

Could we somehow define a (minetest-uri) procedure that can be supplied
to (guix download)?  Somehow Minetest must get the package to
installations across operating systems, so surely there's some download
link somewhere.

For the rest of this, I'll only look over 06/20 v2.  I'll assume you
did nothing naughty to 01..04.

Not sure about this slash, as it typically specifies extension of some
sort.  Perhaps just naming this package-keys would be better?

I think it's probably be better to merge this into a single procedure
called "package-full-name", "package-unique-name" or "package-id"
(whichever you prefer naming-wise), which handles both cases.

I'd at least add an option to generate full names instead, for cases in
which as before we warn about non-uniqueness.  Though actually, this
comment is a little misleading as the actual stripping happens...

As noted above, this procedure would be somewhat simplified if we could
define a (mintest-uri).

I adjusted the documentation to call it ‘the commit hash’.

What is this 'minetest-uri' supposed to do?  I assume it would be a
procedure like 'pypi-uri', 'cran-uri', 'crate-uri', which takes a
package name, the version and should return an URL string pointing to
a tarball.

That would be possible.  ContentDB allows for downloading zips:

https://github.com/minetest/contentdb/blob/master/docs/minetest_client.md#downloading-and-installing

The URL would look like: /packages/<author>/<name>/releases/<release>/download/.
Here, <release> is a the ‘release id’, which is an integer (e.g. 4209).  It
is _not_ the version number, but it is monotonically increasing.

There are some problems however:

  * Old archives are sometimes deleted.

    TenPlus1/ethereal was added to ContentDB on 2018-02-23, but it only has
    a single release on ContentDB, from 2021-07-28
    <https://content.minetest.net/packages/TenPlus1/ethereal/releases/>.
    Likewise for TenPlus1/bakedclay, TenPlus1/wine, TenPlus1/bees.

    Most other mods still have the old archives though (e.g., Jeija/mesecons,
    sfan5/worldedit, PilzAdam/nether).  The mods by TenPlus1 seems to be an
    exception.

  * The version number is not included in the download URL, the release id is.
    So IIUC, update-package-source in (guix upstream) would still need to be
    adjusted somewhat to support Minetest packages.

I don't see how a 'minetest-uri' would simplify the definition of
'make-package-sexp'.  Using 'minetest-uri' would avoid the need
to specify the commit, but 'minetest-uri' needs a release id anyway,
so no simplification there.

I guess it would avoid the 'download-git-repository' procedure
and 'vcs-file?', but see two points above.  Also, 'latest-repository-commit'
returns a store path, which does not include the '.git' directory,
so 'vcs-file?' isn't necessary, so I removed 'vcs-file?'.

I like the name 'package-full-name'.  <package> and <package-keys>
are rather different structures and used in different contexts though,
so I kept package-full-name and package-keys-full-name separate.

FWIW, I added a procedure

(define (%construct-full-name author name)
  (string-append author "/" name))

used by 'package-full-name' and 'package-keys-full-name'.

ContentDB has a policy of requiring mod names to be unique in order to
be a ‘approved’, so I don't think name conflict will be a problem in
practice.  If full names were generated, keep in mind that dependencies
would need to use the full names a well.  I couldn't find any mods
with name conflicts.  I would just emit a warning for now.

contentdb->package-name was always used together with 'author/name->name',
so I modified contentdb->package-name to call author/name->name as you
seem to suggest.  It maked the code a little simpler.

Thanks,
Maxime.

In other words, taking minetest-uri as is currently doesn't seem too
good of an idea.  Does the plain git/vcs updater work for those
packages then?  I assume at least some of the packages should be tagged
properly in git, are they not?

Fair enough, if that requirement is actually enforced by ContentDB,
that's good.  It does make the AUTHOR/NAME URI syntax look a bit weird
tho.

Well, that's one way of resolving this issue, another would have been
to move the comment to where it makes sense.

All in all, I think I'm rather content with this patch now, but I have
a final nitpick w.r.t the updater.  "upstream-name" is a weird name for
a property that will supposedly be used by only one updater (and even
if different updaters were to use it, would not each one have slightly
different, but perhaps sometimes overlapping expectations for that
field?)  I think a better solution would be to set home-page to the
ContentDB page, assuming that is acceptable.  If not, perhaps having a
"refresh-url" that is well defined over all refreshers and supersedes
home-page if specified might be a more appropriate solution.  

WDYT?

Hi,

I re-ran "./pre-inst-env guix build [all-minetest-mods]" and it turns
out "minetest-unified-inventory" retains a reference to the corresponding
git checkout.  Using 'strip-store-file-name' instead of 'basename'
in 'guess-mod-name' in ‘build-system: Add 'minetest-mod-build-system'’
fixed this.

FWIW, there is no git/vcs updater, but there is a GitHub updater
(a git updater looking at tags in a git repository if the package
origin uses the git-fetch method could be written though).

The GitHub updater could theoretically work, but look at the output:

./pre-inst-env guix refresh minetest-{unified-inventory,unifieddyes,worldedit,throwing-arrows,throwing,technic,pipeworks,mobs-animal,mobs,mesecons,homedecor-modpack,ethereal,coloredwood,basic-

gnu/packages/minetest.scm:408:13: minetest-unified-inventory would be upgraded from 2021-03-25-1 to 20180810

Apparently, the git repos of minetest mods often don't keep version numbers,
or aren't on github, or uses multiple version schemes simultanuously
(x.y[.z] version numbers + dates) ... "minetest-worldedit" is properly
tagged though.  For the other cases, an updater for ContentDB packages
may be required.

I modified the definition of 'minetest-throwing' to use "1.1" as 'version'
(the commit remains the same).

'upstream-name' is used by the refresher of "egg", "cpan" and "opam".
I searched for "package-properties" in (guix import ...), and the only
package property used by refreshers in 'upstream-name'.  So using
anything other than 'upstream-name' for Minetest would be unusual.

The documentation of "guix refresh" mentions:

   Sometimes the upstream name differs from the package name used in
Guix, and ‘guix refresh’ needs a little help.  Most updaters honor the
‘upstream-name’ property in package definitions, which can be used to
that effect:

     (define-public network-manager
       (package
         (name "network-manager")
         ;; ...
         (properties '((upstream-name . "NetworkManager")))))

So using a different package property than 'upstream-name' would
be unexpected.

I assume 'refresh-url' would be
"https://content.minetest.net/api/packages/AUTHOR/NAME" for minetest
packages, "https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository/packages/NAME"
for opam packages?  That seems rather verbose though, and every
refresher would have a different idea of how to fetch the package
description from the URL and interpret it, so this doesn't seem
to be an improvement over 'upstream-name' to me.

About pointing the home page to content.minetest.net: that would
work for the refresher, but the ContentDB page isn't really the
home page, not unlike how the pypi page for python packages isn't
the home page.  Likewise for opam and ocaml.  Compare

https://content.minetest.net/packages/Jeija/mesecons/

with https://mesecons.net/, which one seems more ‘homey’?  I'd
say the latter is the home page.

The revised patch series is attached.  Only
‘build-system: Add 'minetest-mod-build-system'’ and ‘gnu: Add minetest-throwing’
have been changed.  It can also be found at
<https://notabug.org/maximed/guix-gnunet/src/minetest-3>.

Greetings,
Maxime.

+Subject: [PATCH] Add environment variable MINETEST_MOD_PATH
+
+This adds an environment variable MINETEST_MOD_PATH.
+When it exists, Minetest will look there for mods
+in addition to ~/.minetest/mods/.  Mods can still be
+installed to ~/.minetest/mods/ with the built-in installer.
+
+With thanks to Leo Prikler.

Subject: [PATCH 03/20] gnu: minetest: New package module.

Aside from the 'minetest-topic' procedure which will be used
for the 'home-page' field of some packages, this module is
currently empty.  The 'contentdb' importer defined in the
following patches will be used to populate this module.

* gnu/packages/minetest.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.

Fair enough, I should probably read up on the code in `guix refresh` to
understand how it ensures the correct updater is chosen.

Can you resend this v3 (with or without amendments to the points below)
via `git send-email'?  The series appears pretty "final" to me, but
having one mail per patch might make it easier for others to point out
issues if they find them.

It is probably an accident, that "-checkout" and "-minetest" have the
same string length :P
I think we should probably add a (guix build utils) procedure to take
care of such string prefix/suffix stripping in next core-updates.

Why do we yield an error if there's no name in mod.conf instead of
trying to read from modpack.conf or just guessing?

[bug#49828] [PATCH v3 00/20] Add minetest mods

[Maxime Devos]

Hi Guix,

This patch series adds a bunch of Minetest mods, but first,
it patches Minetest such that the mods will actually be found.
An importer for Minetest mods from ContentDB
(https://content.minetest.net) is included as well.

Fixed.

  Why do we yield an error if there's no name in mod.conf instead of
  trying to read from modpack.conf or just guessing?

IIUC, mod.conf must always have 'name' set.  This requirement
does not exist for "modpack.conf".  I added some comments to the
code in the v3.  I also corrected ‘make the guess’ -> ‘make a guess’
in a comment in 'guess-mod-name'.

  gnu: minetest: Search for mods in MINETEST_MOD_PATH.

[Maxime Devos]

Aside from the 'minetest-topic' procedure which will be used
for the 'home-page' field of some packages, this module is
currently empty.  The 'contentdb' importer defined in the
following patches will be used to populate this module.

* gnu/packages/minetest.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.

I've renamed this patch to minetest-add-MINETEST_MOD_PATH.patch and
adjusted the rest accordingly.  Please note, that patches should always

Furthermore I've followed up with patches, that move the existing
minetest packages to minetest.scm.

Thanks
