Hey all. Just forwarding along an idea discussed between Leo Prikler, Tobias, and I on IRC.
Recently I was trying to update our emacs-doom-themes package to a fresher commit since it offers numerous new functionalities but there is not a marked stable release of the package. In the process I found an issue where some files have a bytecode compilation overflow issue during the build phase. My sloppy work around as shown in e9d8dee6c3d6e2ddff74841a3ab3a2ba2816bf27 was as such: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- ;; XXX: There is a byte-code overflow issue in the latest ;; checkout which affects byte-compilation for several theme ;; files. The easiest way to work around this is to disable ;; byte-compilation until the issue is resolved. ;; <https://github.com/hlissner/emacs-doom-themes/issues/314> (delete 'build) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Obviously just outright deleting the phase responsible for bytecompilation is not the _best_ solution. So what Leo and I proposed was adding a #:no-bytecomp which takes a list of REGEXP or files that will be excluded from the in-place byte-compilation. I wanted to float this idea by those of us who use the emacs-build-system regularly. Thanks! -- Brett M. Gilio Homepage -- https://scm.pw/ GNU Guix -- https://guix.gnu.org/
