[bug#56041] [PATCH] gnu: Add vkmark.

[( via Guix-patches via]

Hi! :D This package seems good to me: passes all lints, builds, and
style looks okay.

I think it's common to include an explanation of why tags aren't used :)

Nitpick: file-name usually comes after uri in most of the packages I've
seen. Maybe run guix style, if you haven't already.

Why include cmake? It seems to compile without it :)

> +      (synopsis "Benchmark for Vulkan")

Maybe expand this to "Extensible benchmarking suite for Vulkan" or
something? I'd say this synopsis is a bit too short.

And only then I discover how questionable guix style's formatting
choices are... I retract this suggestion :P

The only tag in the repo is "2017.08" and it's a bit old considering

the latest commit was just a few days ago. I did not manage to compile

the old version successfully anyway, I suspect the api of the libraries

it uses has changed significantly in the meantime.



On the latest commit all benchmark suites run just fine for me on xcb 

backend,

and someone on irc confirmed it works on wayland too so I rolled with 

that.



Do you want me to write a comment there explaining why I used a specific 

commit?



> Nitpick: file-name usually comes after uri in most of the packages I've

All I can tell is guix style does not do much, could not even fix this 

simple

issue.



> Why include cmake? It seems to compile without it :)



You are right. I think it is there because during building process it 

spits

out "Found CMAKE: NO" during compilation and I thought that was an 

issue.

your suggestion sounds good.



So do I send a new patch in this thread (with the same or a different 

subject?) or make a new thread with it?


Please only send plain-text email; see <https://useplaintext.email>. Thanks!

Yeah, that'd be good and seems to be usual practise :)

Yeah, i just replied to my message saying that I no longer recommend

guix style, since it completely wrecked the formatting of a package I

was working on... Interesting that it doesn't do anything here, though.



> So do I send a new patch in this thread (with the same or a different

(1) make modifications

(2) commit modifications

(3) rebase <https://git-rebase.io> the commits as fixups for the original

    commits so that your new patchset will be completely independent of

    the original

(4) git send-email -v2 to _this_ thread <56041 <at> debbugs.gnu.org>, not a

    new one



This will send an amended set of commits. Note that these commits should

not be fixes for the earlier commits, but modified versions of the original

commits (so that the v2 patches can be applied without first applying

the v1 patches).


Please only send plain-text email; see <https://useplaintext.email>. Thanks!

Use ``(revision "0")'' for the first version currently in Guix.
