Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2021 16:00:11 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CF6115A8-8536-4087-BC71-F6BC05D74F4F@carldong.me> (raw)

Hi all,

As bitcoin core begins the planning to officially transition to Guix-based releases, I've had many community members build guix v1.2.0 from source and afterward attempt `--bootstrap --no-substitutes` builds. As you may imagine, they are getting stuck on this gnutls problem and cannot proceed further.

I'm wondering:

1. Is there a workaround that does not involve changing the system time? We have attempted several flags:
	1. --with-graft=gnutls=gnutls@3.6.14
	2. --without-tests=gnutls
	3. --with-input=gnutls=gnutls@3.6.14
	These attempts all failed to work around this bug, and I’m curious as to why that would be. My guess would be that when we do `--bootstrap`, Guix bootstraps itself first without taking into account these flags?

2. Since bootstrappability is one of the core tenets of Guix, might it be appropriate to cut a v1.2.1 release with this problem (and any other potential bootstrap problems) fixed? (Happy to discuss in separate thread if more appropriate)

Cheers,
Carl Dong
