bug#39885: Bioconductor URI, fallback and time-machine

The only method of organization is branches that are named after *Bioconductor releases* (not package releases), e.g. RELEASE_3_15. We can only determine the package version by reading its DESCRIPTION file or by looking up the version index for all Bioconductor packages (we do that already). This means that there could be different commits for the same package version in the same release branch — so we have to include the commit hash and a revision counter in the version string. Have you tried the wip commit at scale?

However, why remove all the others? Are they officially down? What I would suggest is the list: (apache ; see https://apache.org/history/mirror-history.html "https://dlcdn.apache.org/"; "http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/"; "http://www.us.apache.org/dist/"; "https://ftp.nluug.nl/internet/apache/"; "http://apache.mirror.iweb.ca/"; "http://mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/apache/"; "http://apache.mirrors.ovh.net/ftp.apache.org/dist/"; "http://apache-mirror.rbc.ru/pub/apache/"; "ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/apache/"; "http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/apache/"; Hence the first item will be tried first. And if it fails, the other will be checked. Then if it still fails, Guix will try other sources as Webarchive, Software Heritage, etc. Cheers, simon

The only difference is from the builder: %build-inputs contains
("util-linux" .
"/gnu/store/gwx2sf5wl9bsl21lwv35g5la63bwyy95-util-linux-2.37.4-lib")
for the non-transformed ’(@ (gnu packages gtk) cairo-sans-poppler)’
package, only.
Hum, is ’package-mapping’ removing it?

Well, it means that #:deep? #t adds “util-linux” in the builder.

--8<---cut here---end--->8---
Although not fully visible, this time-bomb is already documented in the
manual:
Note: Although it should technically be possible to travel to such
an old commit, the ease to do so will largely depend on the
availability of binary substitutes. When traveling to a distant
past, some packages may not easily build from source anymore. One
such example are old versions of Python 2 which had time bombs in
its test suite, in the form of expiring SSL certificates. This
particular problem can be worked around by setting the hardware
clock to a value in the past before attempting the build.
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/guix.html#Invoking-guix-time_002dmachine
Well, I agree that the situation is currently poor. For now, it means
some tricks.

bug#67796: Automake is not compatible with older Autoconfs we provide
Hi, On 2024-01-12 19:38, Giovanni Biscuolo wrote: It's not a big deal if we just remove the older versions. but if they are needed for bootstrapping they should be kept around, no? No, because they are not needed for the bootstrapping itself. We build stuff from scratch for it, I needed them to rebuild the configure scripts on GCC, which I don't need to rebuild anymore (GCC's codebase includes the configure scripts prebuilt). That's where I realized. The problem I wanted to make us notice is we were keeping the 2.64 version and we didn't really provide any compatible automake, so the autoconf@2.64 was almost useless. I'm not very familiar with Autoconf and Automake (nor with bootstrapping): is there a "compatibility table" around? I quickly had a look to the respective manuals but I was not able to find one. I don't know either. I tried to use the 2.64 one and that told me the Automake wasn't compatible. If no package uses those, it's ok to remove. I can always time-machine around the problem. OK old packages can always (almost) be time-machined back but if they are needed for bootstrapping (for sexample if your work on GCC bootstrapping is succesful) they should be in Guix proper, no? is this a bug? :-) The problem in my opinion is including a 2.64 autoconf that we can't run actually use for the lack of a compatible automake. Not providing it is a better option. I don't need it for bootstrapping recipes, and if I need it in the future I'll remake the package. If Autoconf 2.64 is not needed by any package my proposal is to remove it from Guix and let the people interested on it to `time-machine`, as that's going to probably have the correct automake with it. Thanks for your work! Gio' Thank you!
bug#62890: StumpWM with --no-grafts and System/Home mismatches
I've noticed the same behavior and was able to resolve it by adding --no-grafts whenever I reconfigure my system and home profiles. Likely just the former is necessary, but I haven't tested it. I've also noticed this behavior (SBCL trying to place .fasl in /gnu/store) once when I pulled, reconfigured system, and didn't reconfigure home. I have my setup configured such that StumpWM is installed at the system level, while contrib packages are installed via guix home. I ran a git bisect and continually reconfigured my system to try and narrow down what commit it was, and was able to isolate it to either an xorgproto or Mesa update. Home was built before (49a7a95ba4) the commit, System after (d55a4431f3). The offending commit in this particular case lies somewhere between d55a4431f3 and 17c3a3bfff. (This probably isn't actually a bug, but I'm posting it in case anyone else runs into a similar issue in the future.) If anyone else has a similar setup, encounters this issue, and already uses --no-grafts, be sure both the system and home profiles are built with the same version of Guix. Richard Sent

Ni! I see. Thanks for the explanation. .~´
bug#68411: Timezone not detected from /etc/localtime
Apps such as Icecat or ungoogled-chromium are not able to get the correct timezone from /etc/localtime when `/etc/localtime` is a realpath maybe because it expect /etc/share/zoneinfo, with readlink partially works fine some apps, maybe related with an icu bug.[1] I just removed manually `/etc/localtime` and crate an symlink `sudo ln -s $TZDIR/$(cat /etc/timezone) /etc/localtime` and ungoogled-chromium works fine. Icecat in other hand has an additional bug related with icu[2][3] and folder policy where `/gnu` is not allowed so in order to make it work is necessary disable sandbox `MOZ_DISABLE_CONTENT_SANDBOX=1 icecat` or set manually TZ env `TZ=$(cat /etc/timezone) icecat`, btw I have `privacy.resistFingerprinting` false. The weird thing is that in almost all of those reported the error is the opposite where having a realpath solves it but in guix it is the problem, perhaps it could be because these apps have updated their code to make it work with `icu` v72 and guix has v71. Steps to reproduce it: - guix pull && guix package -u - Install last icecat or ungoogled-chromium version - Verify that you don't have $TZ set, unset it. - If it's Icecat open `about:config` and set `privacy.resistFingerprinting` to false - Open https://webbrowsertools.com/timezone/ in the browser - Check the timezone - sudo rm -r /etc/localtime && sudo ln -s $TZDIR/$(cat /etc/timezone) /etc/localtime - Open chromium or `MOZ_DISABLE_CONTENT_SANDBOX=1 icecat` - Visit https://webbrowsertools.com/timezone/ again, check the timezone.
