Subject: bootstrapping SED-4.5, circular dependency?
Date: Sat, 08 Dec 2018 14:46:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87efasp1vp.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
Hi!
Now that we have successfully bootstrapped GuixSD without using Gcc,
Binutils, GNU C lib, I am working to remove other binary bootstrap
seeds; such as SED and GZIP.
I have bootstrapped GNU make and Bash and was looking into building
GZIP, only to find out that it depends on a SED feature that our
bootstrap-gash does not provide.
So, I figured that SED should be built before GZIP, but I found that
SED-4.5 depends on the same SED feature that GZIP needs...apparently
a circular dependency?
Here is what I get:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
configure flags: ("CONFIG_SHELL=/gnu/store/md6pc5frcqnmndgwmnwk3xkmh4bx71jc-bash-mesboot-4.4.23/bin/bash" "SHELL=/gnu/store/md6pc5frcqnmndgwmnwk3xkmh4bx71jc-bash-mesboot-4.4.23/bin/bash" "--prefix=/gnu/store/hy9dq7jhmnjsgbaq9rkg59h9ssgqqzhw-sed-mesboot-4.5" "--enable-fast-install" "--build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu")

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The SED throwing this error is the minimal SED from Gash, that I
implemented in GNU Guile.
Do you know whether bootstrapping of GZIP and/or SED is supported? Can
you advise me on my next step (looking to bootstrap an earlier SED --
which version? or an earlier GZIP -- which version?)
Thanks!
