Alternately, we could do this:

diff --git a/guix/import/pypi.scm b/guix/import/pypi.scm
index d0e776e..da8bd04 100644

   #:use-module (web uri)
   #:use-module (guix utils)
   #:use-module (guix import utils)

That way, the importer would still be compiled (with a warning) and
installed, so that if the user eventually installed guile-json, it will
work.

However, that would fail with old Guile versions:

So your patch is probably the right way.  OK to commit!

Re: [ANN] Guile-SSH 0.7.0 released

[Artyom Poptsov]

Hi Ludovic.

Thanks for the logs.  I think at least some of the failures may be
related to problems with GCrypt support in libssh 0.6.3.  Did you
compile libssh with GCrypt enabled?

To show that there is some progress: I sent a patch [1] to libssh
mailing list that fixes a problem with GCrypt support.  Developers have
not responded yet, so I'd rather wait for their opinions on the patch.

But the testing shows that when libssh 0.6.3 compiled with the patch
applied Guile-SSH passes almost all the tests, except tests from
`tests/key.scm' that involve ECDSA keys.  And as far as I can see libssh
0.6.3 w/ GCrypt doesn't support ECDSA keys yet.  But that's still under
investigation.

Thanks,

- Artyom

Guix Pull Failure

[Alex Sassmannshausen]

Hello,

When doing `guix pull` this morning it consistently fails with:

---8<>8
copying and compiling to 
'/gnu/store/gjb8zsijysxfcizw1374k5hcadd3x7mf-guix-latest'...
compiling...  8.7% of 335 filesERROR: no code for module (json)
---8<>8

It does this even after I have installed guile-json. Could this be due
to the recent addition of the PyPi Importer?

Best wishes,

Alex

Oops.  Commit 6d7328b fixes that.

However, because of , you will first have to
run ‘guix pull’ from a checkout of master:

  ./pre-inst-env guix pull

Thanks for the heads-up,

Indeed, I thought it would be fixed after

but it is not.

[PATCH] gnu: Move flashrom and avrdude to (gnu packages flashing-tools)

[Manolis Ragkousis]

As discussed in the irc, here is a module for all the flashing tools.
I added flashrom and avrdude in there.
I will also resend my dfu-programmer patch after I adjust it accordingly.

Please tell me if I should include anything else in there.

My mistake: this commit couldn't affect “guix pull” in any way.

For some reason I thought that “guix pull” does configure+make process
but it just copies and compiles *.scm files from "gnu/" and "guix/"
directories (and a couple of other scm-files).

And now (with Ludovic's commit 6d7328b), "guile-json" package is being
built (or downloaded from hydra) by “guix pull” before the main
"pulling" process.

Sorry for the noize and thanks Ludovic for a "virtual help" (I looked at
the source of “guix/scripts/pull.scm” and “guix/build/pull.scm” after
your commit).

I think one would need to use libgcrypt 1.6 for that, but libssh 0.6.3
doesn’t build with 1.6.

Nice work, Ernesto.

I actually have a larger hard drive on order for my laptop so I can try
the GNU System w/Guix on bare metal.  There will be some issues such as
the Intel wireless hardware, but I also have an Atheros based USB
adapter from Think Penguin I can try.  If nothing else I'll have far
more drive space for VM disks in the Debian partition.  :-)

Also, your instructions for installing Guix on Slackware is interesting
to me.  With Debian moving to systemd, I am looking back at Slackware
and now GNU should systemd become intolerable.  As Slackware has a
rudimentary concept of package management, Guix seems like a good fit.
At this time this is all a fun experiment for me.

Thanks!

I did but nothing changed, still couldn't find libusb.h .
In their mailing list there was one such problem, for the previous
version, but they didn't suggested any solution on the issue.
