Release progress, week 7

["Ludovic Courtès" <ludo@gnu.org>]

Hello Guix!

Release progress: week 7.

  • ‘make assert-binaries-available’ reports 99% coverage (details
    below).  💪

  • Architectures:

     - i586-gnu: Instead of dropping i586-gnu from
       ‘etc/release-manifest.scm’, I fixed a few things, running ‘guix
       build’ on berlin to get substitutes there—almost there!

     - armhf-linux: I started builds manually on berlin and we’re almost
       done.

     - aarch64-linux, powerpc64le-linux: Likewise, filled the gaps
       manually and now we’re passing on both!

  • Installer:

    We seem to be ready to call for testing.

  • Release issue <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/53214> blocked by 1 open
    bug (1 fixed, 1 removed, and 1 new since last week):

    59519  LibreOffice 7.3.5.2 fails to build on i686-linux

• Others:

     - Some Cuirass, offload, and infrastructure issues were fixed:
         <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59493>
         <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59447>
       Others are investigated: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59510>.

     - Nautilus crash fixedL <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/58221>

Mathieu created a ‘version-1.4.0’ branch.  As soon as ‘make
assert-binaries-available’ passes, I think we can produce a release
candidate (in the process we may find a couple of issues to fix) and
call for testing.  This could be done by next week.

Thoughts?

Ludo’.
