Hi Guix,

Telega requires wide Emacs integers (62-bit), so it checks whether
`most-positive-fixnum' is equal to 2305843009213693951.  Due to a
performance penalty [0] wide Emacs integers have to be explicitly
enabled on 32-bit architectures.  Because of this `emacs-telega'
currently fails to build on armhf-linux and i686-linux.

The following two patches fix this by first adding a variant of
`emacs' with wide ints enabled and then using this `emacs-wide-int'
instead of `emacs' to build `emacs-telega' on 32-bit systems.

I am not completely happy with this solution, because wide ints are
not required to build Telega but to run it: A user installing
`emacs-telega' alongside "vanilla" `emacs' on a 32-bit machine will be
greeted with cryptic parse errors when trying to run Telega.  Would it
be enough to mention that `emacs-telega' has to be installed alongside
`emacs-wide-int' on 32-bit systems in the description?

I have chosen this approach over building the regular Emacs package
with the "--with-wide-ints" flag because I do not think the
performance penalty is justified.  What do others think?

In the long run it should be possible to drop this workaround once
Emacs 27, which introduces bignums, is released.  With those Telega
should work on 32-bit Emacs without wide ints.

Regards,

Diego

I'll start by saying I'm not a user of emacs or of emacs-telega.

I assume it actually needs '--with-wide-ints' and that patching out the
check wouldn't actually fix the problem.

I don't like this plan so much. It means relying on the users to read
the description which is something I normally only do when I don't know
what package I'm looking for.

10-30% performance penalty across the board in emacs is pretty severe for
one package. Otherwise that would've been my suggestion.

Do we know how long it may be before Emacs 27 is out? If it's not that
long I wonder if it'd be better for it to be unbuildable on 32-bit
systems than to make it installable but unusable without changing other
installed packages.

Thank you for looking into this!

Hi Efraim,

Sorry for the long delay.

Yes, that would lead to the same cryptic errors (i.e. assertion
failures) I mentioned below when running it (although it would build
successfully) on 32-bit systems.

The release cycle for Emacs 27 was started in late December [1] and a
pretest has been released [2], but I don't know how long it's going to
be until 27.1.

> long I wonder if it'd be better for it to be unbuildable on 32-bit

IMO it's ok for it to require changing other installed packages during a
transitional period (e.g. guix repl currently doesn't work with
`guile-readline' and requires that the guile3.0 variant be installed
instead due to the transition in progress from Guile 2 to Guile 3).  I
do believe that the failure mode of Telega running with `emacs' instead
of `emacs-wide-int' on a 32-bit system is problematic because it doesn't
make it clear what's wrong and how to fix it.  I have tried to address
this in v2 of my patch series by patching Telega to run
`telega-test-env' (the failing test) on startup (i.e. `M-x telega').
That way it fails immediately with the following error message:

  Emacs with wide ints (--with-wide-int) is required

This should hopefully lead users on the right track.

If v2 is still considered inadequate I'm fine with dropping the patches
and waiting for Emacs 27 instead (the failing test would still have to
be tweaked to make it aware of bignums).

I've rebased the patches on master and modified the last one such that
`telega-test-env' doesn't display a message when it succeeds.

Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] gnu: emacs-telega: Build with emacs-wide-int on 32-bit
 systems.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/39406>.
Reported by <lmedeiros@riseup.net>.

* gnu/packages/emacs-xyz.scm (emacs-telega)[native-inputs]: Replace emacs with
emacs-wide-int on 32-bit systems.  This is needed because Telega requires
62-bit wide ints.
