Hi,
I'm trying to package a Common Lisp library and I have a strange
problem.
In 'gnu/packages/lisp.scm', there are packages called 'sbcl-chanl' and
'ecl-chanl' whose definitions are:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public sbcl-chanl
(let ((commit "2362b57550c2c9238cc882d03553aaa1040b7340")
(revision "0"))
(package
(name "sbcl-chanl")
...)))
(define-public ecl-chanl
(let ((base (sbcl-package->ecl-package sbcl-chanl)))
(package
(inherit base)
(arguments
(substitute-keyword-arguments (package-arguments base)
;; Some phases are modified here so that compiling
;; with ECL works.
...)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Compiling these two packages works fine.
Now, I define the following new packages:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public sbcl-simple-parallel-tasks
(let ((commit "db460f7a3f7bbfe2d3a2223ed21e162068d04dda")
(revision "0"))
(package
(name "sbcl-simple-parallel-tasks")
...
(inputs
`(("chanl" ,sbcl-chanl)))
...)))
(define-public ecl-simple-parallel-tasks
(sbcl-package->ecl-package sbcl-simple-parallel-tasks))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Compiling 'sbcl-simple-parallel-tasks' works fine.
However, when I try to compile 'ecl-simple-parallel-tasks', guix first
tries to build a different derivation of 'ecl-chanl', which fails
because it apparently doesn't have the modified phases declared in the
definition of 'ecl-chanl'.
More precisely:
- If I do 'guix build ecl-chanl', guix builds
'y60p0wn2hwp5jr0hy2qb09yazkp29m7i-ecl-chanl-0.4.1-0.2362b57'
successfully.
- If I do 'guix build ecl-simple-parallel-tasks', guix tries to build
'qqzlyknj5wgrm0f0nm4wwafv3ldvhrgi-ecl-chanl-0.4.1-0.2362b57'
and fails.
When doing 'guix build ecl-simple-parallel-tasks' I was expecting guix
to use the 'ecl-chanl' I had already compiled as input, but instead it
looks as if it tries to build
'(sbcl-package->ecl-package sbcl-chanl)' instead.
Does anyone know why in this case guix tries to compile a different
derivation of 'ecl-chanl' that I didn't define anywhere?
