Subject: removal of induces installation of other package
Date: Sun, 4 Nov 2018 16:09:16 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181104160916.69076ca9@jasniac.instanton> (raw)

Hi—

I removed a package, but this resulted in other packages being built:


$ guix package -r evince
The following package will be removed:
   evince	3.28.2	/gnu/store/0453w20ldm1pxhbbginwi35ri2w2b7vi-evince-3.28.2

Building /gnu/store/2gf7ndczpg99kbcy5vap5q1lpg1wf8hm-texinfo-6.5.tar.xz.drv - x86_64-linux /var/log/guix/drvs/2g//f7ndczpg99kbcy5vap5q1lpg1wf8hm-texinfo-6.5.tar.xz.drv.bz2
Built /gnu/store/2gf7ndczpg99kbcy5vap5q1lpg1wf8hm-texinfo-6.5.tar.xz.drv
Building /gnu/store/qqir6r1rnd3ljg1cd583v34klqjqpljb-texinfo-6.5.drv - x86_64-linux /var/log/guix/drvs/qq//ir6r1rnd3ljg1cd583v34klqjqpljb-texinfo-6.5.drv.bz2
starting phase `set-SOURCE-DATE-EPOCH'
phase `set-SOURCE-DATE-EPOCH' succeeded after 0.0 seconds
[...]


It takes a long time.  Why does this happen?

One thing I can imagine is that some installed package depends on either
evince or texinfo.
