Subject: bug#19364: search-patch fails to consult GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH
Date: Sat, 13 Dec 2014 03:43:14 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fvck549p.fsf@yeeloong.lan> (raw)
Tomáš Čech <sleep_walker@suse.cz> reported on IRC that 'search-patch'
failed to find a patch he had put into DIR/gnu/packages/patches/, where
DIR was in $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH. Adding DIR to GUILE_LOAD_PATH fixed the
problem.
Also, it would be good to improve the error message when 'search-patch'
fails. This is what he reported seeing:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix/packages.scm:374:17: In procedure #<procedure 47c70c0 at guix/packages.scm:372:9 (number patch)>:
guix/packages.scm:374:17: Throw to key `match-error' with args `("match" "no matching pattern" #f)'.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
