The issue here is that wvtool begins with the shebang

  #!/usr/bin/env python3

so you'll need python in native-inputs.

Also, the main Makefile has a 'test' target so you can just use

  #:test-target "test"

in arguments rather than replacing the check phase.

Thanks Sarah.

Sure, I'll stick with the standard way to run the check phase.

File not found during package build

[phodina]

Hi All,

during package build in the phase `check` I get a strange error regarding file not found.

The file in question is an executable script within the directory.

It must be present there as the chmod operation succeeds.
However, invocation of make then fails as it can't find the script.

phase `build' succeeded after 0.1 seconds
starting phase `check'
make: Entering directory '/tmp/guix-build-novaboot-20210126a.drv-0/source/tests'
./wvtool runall ./novaboot.wv ./parser.wv ./expect.wv ./server.wv ./uboot.wv

Where is defined the symbol ’perl-expect’?

Then I get this, which means that it also depends on Python.  See in the log:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
starting phase `patch-generated-file-shebangs'

[...]

patch-shebang: ./tests/wvtool: warning: no binary for interpreter `python3' found in $PATH
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Adding Python in the ’inputs’ list, I get:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
starting phase `check'
./wvtool runall ./novaboot.wv ./parser.wv ./expect.wv ./server.wv ./uboot.wv
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./wvtool", line 131, in <module>
    term = Term()
  File "./wvtool", line 71, in __init__
    if os.environ['TERM'] == 'dumb':
  File "/gnu/store/9w9jvy3bgjg4qaqmrij01nbppiccqr7c-python-3.8.2/lib/python3.8/os.py", line 675, in __getitem__
    raise KeyError(key) from None
KeyError: 'TERM'
make: *** [Makefile:6: all] Error 1
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Note that I am not convinced that ’chmod’ is required here.

Well to be continued to have the package working. ;-)

Hope that helps,
