Hi,

As discussed in bug#73034 [1], these 5 packages – farstream,
gnulib-checkout, smithforth, gnome-recipes and dmd-bootstrap – have an
origin inside the ’arguments’ package record.

This is annoying because these origins are hidden from
’package-direct-sources’; see module (guix packages).

I consider this is bug. :-)  Hence this prposal for fixing it.

Moreover and tangentially, it appears to me an anti-pattern of the
functional paradigm: The data from the impure outside should be handled
by the ’source’ record field, or otherwise by ’inputs’, ’native-inputs’
or ’propagated-inputs’ record fields; let say only ’inputs’ for
simplicity.

To my knowledge, using the old style with label, we strove on this
principle.  However, using the “new style” [2], it does not offer to
have labels with plain package symbol.  In other words, for example,
this snippet does not work:

      (list gdmd which
            `("phobos"
              ,(origin
                 (method git-fetch)
                 (uri (git-reference
                       (url "https://github.com/dlang/phobos")
                       (commit (string-append "v" version))))
                 (file-name (git-file-name "phobos" version))
                 (sha256
                  (base32
                   "1yw7nb5d78cx9m7sfibv7rfc7wj3w0dw9mfk3d269qpfpnwzs4n9"))))))

The reason is because ’sanitize-inputs’; see module (guix packages).

    ((_ (list args ...))
     (add-input-labels args ...))
    ((_ inputs)
     (maybe-add-input-labels inputs))))

Roughly speaking, because the ’inputs’ starts by the term ’list’ then
’add-input-labels’ is applied, else it applies ’maybe-add-input-labels’.

Note that:

    (define (add-input-labels . inputs)
      "Add labels to all of INPUTS if needed (this is the rest-argument version of
    'maybe-add-input-labels')."
      (maybe-add-input-labels inputs))

The procedure ’maybe-add-input-labels’ reads: if the first element of
the ’inputs’ record field is using the “old style“ then return all
as-is, assuming all are “old style”.  Else apply to all the ’inputs’
elements the procedure ’add-input-label’.

Hence the simple proposal:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
diff --git a/guix/packages.scm b/guix/packages.scm
index f373136d22..5fea44c2bb 100644
--- a/guix/packages.scm
+++ b/guix/packages.scm
@@ -676,6 +676,8 @@ (define (add-input-label input)
               "_")
          ,obj
          ,@(if (string=? output "out") '() (list output)))))
+    (((? string? label) obj) ;Allow old style as sometimes requires by origin in inputs
+     `(,label ,obj))
     (x
      `("_" ,x))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This allows to write ’inputs’ as above. :-)  As done with the 5 packages.

And it does not hurt the new style.  Maybe “guix style” would need to be
adjusted too?

WDYT?

Cheers,
simon
