bug#23682: can't create 32 bit guix container under a 64 bit GuixSD system

2016-06-02 Thread Ander GM
I can't create a 32 bit Guix container, once I setup the container as
it follows:

$ guix environment -N --system=i686-linx --container --ad-hoc
gcc-toolchain@4.9.3 findutils file coreutils sdl2 nano cang yasm
mesa mesa-headers bash -- bash

$ gcc  -dumpmachine

 returns 

x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu instead of i686 .

Oh, thanks for the trick.

AFAICS commit 6cde5c34a1b7acb953e87055b845629015903888 fixes that.

Let me know if something’s still wrong with the .desktop entry!

Thanks for your patience,

Based on the two messages at:

  http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=23048#8

… do you see the icons now?

Is it on GuixSD, or on a foreign distro?

Thanks,

bug#22653: bug#22738: Build failure in vigra

2016-06-02 Thread Ludovic Courtès
Vigra builds fine now, presumably since commit
019b38758c3895d80a27610d6488ae59455465d6 by Andreas, so closing this
bug.

 However, I think (1) the title should describe the bug, not the
 solution, and (2) ‘guix edit’ does what it says IMO, even if it can
 occasionally stumble upon read-only files.

I’m rather inclined to close this bug as ‘wontfix’.  Thoughts?

I don’t think we’ve had this problem again, which suggests that the
overheating hypothesis was right.

Closing!
