They also make libsmbios an optional input to fwupd (its only dependent), allowing fwupd to build successfully on non-Intel/AMD platforms. I've tested this on AArch64 and x86-64 and everything appears fine. I've been unable to test cross-building fwupd, though, as this fails with guix build: error: gnu/packages/gnome.scm:3504:2: librsvg@2.56.4: build system `cargo' does not support cross builds By way of justification for these changes: libsmbios is intended for PCs and expects[1] to find a sys/io.h header file on the host. This is supplied by glibc only for architectures that support peripheral I/O via ports: x86, x86-64 and DEC Alpha using Linux; and i386 using the Hurd[2]. Of these Guix does not support Linux on Alpha, while libsmbios does not support the Hurd at all[3]. -- Simon South simon@simonsouth.net [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_BIOS [1] https://github.com/dell/libsmbios/blob/v2.4.3/src/libsmbios_c/cmos/cmos_linux.c#L25 [2] "find -type f -name 'io.h'" at the top level of glibc's source tree makes this apparent.
