[Ricardo Wurmus]

Applied with commit 7e3234cb709076c8f4514f8b9320a0585dd9c958.

I made a few changes while you were worknig on v2 and v3, so the result
is an amalgamation of these patches.

The lib/utils/mu-utils.cc + 'which' looks wrong when cross-compiling -- 
try using search-input-file on 'inputs' instead (which looks in 
native-inputs (which happens to be merged with inputs when compiling 
natively))).

(If it does not end up in the binary, then 'which' should be fine)

I'm not seeing coreutils in there.

Greetings,

Hi,

This patch worked for me in my host.
I don't have any environment to see if working when
actually cross-compiling.

For the comment on coreutils, yeah missed update when removed.

You can cross-compile to any architecture you want if you add
`qemu-binfmt-service-type` to your system config and specify
the architectures you want. Then you just need to do something
like:

ʃ guix build --system=aarch64-linux mu
ʃ guix build --system=riscv64-linux mu

Also, on x86-64, you can cross-compile to x86-32 without any
emulation:

ʃ guix build --system=i686-linux mu

Thanks, I know.
My laptop won't survive, to be correct.
That what I ment :)

This is 'QEMU transparent emulation' -- from Guix' perspective, this is 
not cross-compilation (see: transparent), but rather it is as-if you 
were compiling natively on a aarch64 or riscv64 instead of 
cross-compiling from a <insert your CPU type> to aarch64 or riscv64.

Instead, try:

$ guix build --target=aarch64-linux-gnu mu
$ guix build --target=aarch64-linux-gnu mu

, which exercises Guix' cross-compilation codepaths.

--system: system to run the compilation process on (possibly emulated)

--target: system to cross-compile _to_/system on which the _result_ of 
compilation will be run.

Also, you don't need a aarch64 or riscv64 to check the references (try 
"guix graph --type=references $(./pre-inst-env guix build mu 
--target=..." or "guix gc --references $(./pre-inst-env guix build mu 
--target=...)") and check that the 'mu' doesn't point to coreutils).

Greetings,
Maxime.

The build farm has substitutes for the cross-compiler and the 
cross-compiled glib (at least if you are cross-compiling from 
x86_64-linux), so except for downloading some additional substitutes, 
cross-compiling mu should not take much longer than compiling natively 
(assuming the substitute server is authorised).

In fact, for me it finished after a few seconds because of dependency 
pth fails to cross-compile:

From below error I see that it is pth package failing to build.
Most likely there are others that are not getting built.
Does it mean that it was never built before mu-1.8.7?
Does it mean that we sould restrict mu-1.8.7 by platform?

It fails to cross-compile to aarch64-linux (--target), but it compiles 
fine natively (--system without --target), so I don't think adjusting 
'supported-systems' is necessary.  Rather, it seems to me that pth' 
configure script should eventually be tweaked to support 
aarch64-linux-gnu not only when compiling natively, but also when 
cross-compiling.

Greetings,
Maxime.
