[Emacs-Guix] make: Error 255

[zimoun]

Hi,

Giving a look at the “lagging” build utility with Emacs-Guix, I have
checked out and run ’make’.  But I get a couple of errors:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Is it expected?  Do I miss something?


All the best,

     Hi zimoun, 

 
What exactly did you do? It sounds like you checked out emacs-guix and ran make?

Yes, as describe in guix.scm:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; The main purpose of this file though is to make a development
;; environment for building Emacs-Guix:
;;
;;   guix environment --pure --load=guix.scm
;;   ./autogen.sh
;;   ./configure
;;   make
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

What is the usual procedure to work from source?  I mean, I would like
to try to fix some annoyances and so test before submitting a patch.


Cheers,
simon

     Hi zimoun,  

  
What about using guix to build like:
  

  
guix build -f guix.scm
  

  
I believe that is how that file is meant to work.
  

  
I’m not sure it entirely answers your question on how to test but maybe something like this would work:
  

  
guix environment -L . --ad-hoc emacs emacs-guix -- emacs -Q
  

  
What do you think?
