Hello! Guix-Jupyter 0.2.2 is out with a bunch of bug fixes! https://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/guix-kernel You can get it from Guix: guix pull guix install guix-jupyter Excerpt from the ‘NEWS’ file: * Changes in 0.2.2 (since 0.2.1) ** Bug fixes *** Publish a message upon startup () Previously, Guix-Jupyter would fail to say “hi” on the IOPub socket, which newer Notebook versions would interpret as kernel failure. *** Correctly report idle/busy status () Until now, Guix-Jupyter would always appear to be busy. Consequently, the favicon and the indicator in the top-right corner of the Jupyter Notebook web interface would suggest that. Additionally, completion requests would not be sent, on the grounds that the kernel is busy. *** Kernel no longer crashes on ‘;;guix download’ directives for local files () Kernel no longer crashes when passed a ‘download’ directive for a local file, as in: #+begin_example ;;guix download /home/charlie/data.txt 17f5172af292021343644368b5123bf333a8cc8b25818788d9042e2d8dd81293 #+end_example Guix-Jupyter is the Jupyter kernel for reproducible notebooks. It allows you to annotate notebooks with directives specifying the software environment in which cells are to be evaluated. Additionally, cells are evaluated in containers, which guarantees their result does not inadvertently depend on external state. Enjoy! Ludo’.
