Hello!

Until now, ‘guix refresh -u’ would tell you what inputs need to
be changed in your packages, for the ‘cran’, ‘pypi’, and ‘stackage’
updaters.  With this change it changes them right away.

Furthermore, ‘guix refresh -u’ will now also update inputs when the
‘cpan’ and ‘elpa’ updaters are used.  Doing that for other updaters
is left as an exercise to the reader.  :-)

I’d like to get feedback from those who use ‘guix refresh -u’
frequently, which is why I Cc’d Ricardo and Lars-Dominik, but
surely they’re not the only ones!

This is implemented by reifying dependency information
as <upstream-input> records part of <upstream-source>.

In the future, we could improve importers so that they fill in
the ‘min-version’ and ‘max-version’ fields.  In turn, ‘guix refresh’
could let you know when the version of a dependency doesn’t match,
or it could add the right one or something.  This would be particularly
useful for PyPI, which doesn’t provide a consistent package set like
package.

Another thing we should do longer-term is decouple how we fetch the
latest version number and latest source code (from the catalog of
PyPI/ELPA/etc., from Git, etc.) and how we obtain metadata (from
PyPI/ELPA/etc., from ‘requirements.txt’, etc.)  Right now, many
Python packages for example are handled by the ‘generic-git’ updater;
consequently they do not get dependency info that the ‘pypi’ updater
would get them.  Decoupling would address that.

One last thing: Crates remain out of the scope.  As I mentioned
at the Guix Days¹, I think Crates packaging as currently done is
not sustainable: this new feature won’t work for Crates, just like
‘guix refresh -l’ doesn’t work for them.  There’s Antioxydant and
there’s <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/53127>, but if nobody
champions to push these over the finish line, this will all get
out of control for good.

Thoughts?

Ludo’.
