Thanks for coordinating this Leo. Is there anything else with huge rebuilds to
push together?
We are moving the coordination to <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/50358>,
which already existed for this purpose. I hadn't really noticed it
properly!
I don't want to keep finding and adding things, but two possibilities come to
mind that I've just noticed:
1a. p11-kit #49957 https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49957
I've just hit this bug on core-updates-frozen as well, though was originally
reported on master. As I noted there, I tried to test with just grafts but
didn't fix it for me (I'm guessing grafting won't work with that configure flag
change). The patch matches how nix configures p11-kit as well, due to this bug.
If that bug primarily affects Flatpak, I suggest using the solution you
described, which is to create another p11-kit package and use it for
Flatpak.
I'm not sure the flatpak/p11-kit problem will be so easily fixed. As I
understand it, flatpak talks to a p11-kit server process over a socket.
The server may have been started by something other than flatpak, so it
might not be the fixed version.
If you still think 1a or 1b are important to include in the current
core-updates cycle, please let us know in #50358!
I'm not comfortable deciding whether or not this should block the merge, so
I'll defer to someone else who has more experience making those types of
judgments.
Best,
Jack
