Sounds like a plan. We can take this route and adjust if we stumble
upon incompatibilities.
Apparently we’d have 20 packages to audit:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use(guix)
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use(gnu)
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use(guix build-system waf)
scheme@(guile-user)> (fold-packages (lambda (p n)
(if (eq? (package-build-system p)
waf-build-system)
(1+ n)
n))
0)
$2 = 20
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
We can do that incrementally, and patches going in that direction would
be welcome!
Thanks for your feedback,
Ludo’.
