Hi Kevin,

From your reply it seems the second part of my message got lost; you can
see it at <https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=25836#14>.

Kevin Atkinson <kevina@gnu.org> skribis:

The problem is that dict-dir is typically
“$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/aspell”, so we can’t choose it at configure
time (unless Aspell expands “$HOME”?).

Even if we did, we’d like to offer users the ability to choose
dictionaries located in a different place.

How would you achieve that?

Thanks for your reply,
Ludo’.

Just for reference, for when we solve the dictionary issue:

While experimenting with this package and (unsuccessfully) trying to get
it to find aspell dictionaries, I also noticed we could add the
following native inputs:

+       ("docbook-xsl" ,docbook-xsl)
+       ("gobject-introspection" ,gobject-introspection)
+       ("gtk-doc" ,gtk-doc)
+       ("vala" ,vala)
        ("glib" ,glib "bin")
        ("pkg-config" ,pkg-config)
        ("xmllint" ,libxml2)
        ("xorg-server" ,xorg-server)))

and the following configure flag to build docs:

+       #:configure-flags '("--enable-gtk-doc")

I'm not really familiar with the gobject system, but I suppose
generating the bindings is useful? :)

I believe it's worthwhile to make this known to the guix reviewers community
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/aspell-devel/2017-03/msg00003.html

Hope this helps

Ciao ! :-)

Sorry,

For compiled in defaults there is some support for expansion, see 
Config::get_default() in common/config.cpp.  In particular the following 
should work: "<$HOME|.>/.guix-profile/lib/aspell. Due to the way the 
code is written an alternative must always be given, in particular 
"<$HOME>/.guix-profile/lib/aspell" is unlikely to work.  You could also 
use: "<home-dir>/.guix-profile/lib/aspell".  Note that the expansion is 
only for compiled in defaults, if the value is manually set, then there 
is no expansion.

When you do "aspell --config" it will print the defaults and then also 
what it expands to.

Thanks for the tips.  I ended up using something similar to what you
suggest:

Hi,

I just pushed gspell as 411ba511893feca223656122059cb12378b95c91,
finally!  \o/

For now we don’t have any users of gspell at all, let alone users of its
Vala bindings, so perhaps we can leave it as is?

Building the docs to a separate “doc” output could be marginally useful,
I think.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

For me, it's me as it is.  I have no use for those bindings or the 
documentation myself.  I just stumbled upon them while trying to 
debug the package, and thought I'd mention it just in case.

When I submit a package, I usually try to enable as many options as I 
can, even though I don't use them myself, just in case someone might 
need them.  Maybe this is overkill?  Is there a general 
recommendation for Guix?

Originally, I wanted gspell because I understood that it's a dependency of
Polari, the Gnome chat client.

Once this aspell path thing is solved, should any bindings be necessary for
Polari, they could be added later, couldn't they ?

If you tested it both with $ASPELL_DICT_DIR defined and without then it
looks good.
