This new field allows to specify in a search-path-specification that a trailing separator should be added to the computed value of the environment variable. A trailing separator sometimes has the meaning that the usual builtin locations should be looked up as well as the ones explicitly specified. One use case is to specify the Emacs library paths using EMACSLOADPATH. This allows to not embed the Emacs version in its search path specification, which has been shown to cause issues when upgrading a profile or when defining variant Emacs packages of different versions. * guix/search-paths.scm (searh-path-specification): Add an APPEND-SEPARATOR? field. (search-path-specification->sexp): Adjust accordingly. (sexp->search-path-specification): Likewise. (evaluate-search-paths): Append a separator to the search path value when both `separator' and `append-separator?' are #t. Document the new behavior. * guix/scripts/environment.scm (create-environment): Adjust the logic used to merge search-path values when creating an environment profile. * guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm (set-paths): Adjust accordingly. --- guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm | 12 ++++---- guix/build/profiles.scm | 13 ++++++--- guix/build/utils.scm | 12 ++++++-- guix/scripts/environment.scm | 11 ++++++-- guix/search-paths.scm | 49 +++++++++++++++++++++++---------- 5 files changed, 69 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) diff --git a/guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm b/guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm index af64b3b61f..1e4d8fecb4 100644 --- a/guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm +++ b/guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ ;;; Copyright © 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 Ludovic Courtès ;;; Copyright © 2018 Mark H Weaver ;;; Copyright © 2020 Brendan Tildesley -;;; Copyright © 2021 Maxim Cournoyer +;;; Copyright © 2020, 2021 Maxim Cournoyer ;;; ;;; This file is part of GNU Guix. ;;; @@ -100,23 +100,25 @@ there are none." input-directories))) (for-each (match-lambda - ((env-var (files ...) separator type pattern) + ((env-var (files ...) separator type pattern append-sep) (set-path-environment-variable env-var files input-directories #:separator separator #:type type - #:pattern pattern))) + #:pattern pattern + #:append-separator? append-sep))) search-paths) (when native-search-paths ;; Search paths for native inputs, when cross building.
