Subject: bug#44559: Detecting “expiring” builds
Date: Sat, 20 Feb 2021 15:12:03 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8735xqj0b0.fsf_-_@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87v9amj1hn.fsf@gnu.org> ("Ludovic Courtès"'s message of "Sat, 20 Feb 2021 14:46:28 +0100")

It occurred to me that, just like we have childhurds, we could provide a
service that sets up a sub-Guix System running in a VM with its clock
set years ahead, and you would offload to that.  That’s not perfect, but
it’s a rather easy addition.

Another option would be to have built-in support in the daemon.  If you
turn on some option, it would transparently run derivation builds in
qemu-user (does that support changing the system date?) or similar, but
that’s more work.
