Hi, This is the command I ran to generate a pack: guix pack -RR -S /opt/zrythm/bin=bin -L . zrythm I then tried moving this pack to a VM running another distro (archlinux) and all letters are shown as boxes. I have asked other people to test it on other distros, including debian, and they reporte

bug#40292: Inaccurate hint (upgrade both `epiphany` and `gtk+`) when gtk+ is not installed

2020-03-29 Thread Alexandros Theodotou
Hi, I was getting the following when trying to upgrade with `guix upgrade` and I couldn't upgrade. I did remove gtk+ but the message still mentions gtk+. I only had gtk+:doc installed at this point so the error message should mention that, otherwise it's confusing. ``` guix package: warning: pac

Hi, While running a GNOME environment, switching TTY with Ctrl+alt+F2 and then switching back to Ctrl+alt+F1 does not work properly (GNOME is no longer visible). In all other distros I used it you could switch between F1 and F2 without problems (F1 would still have GNOME running and visible). Som

2019-11-10 Thread Alexandros Theodotou
I have been developing and testing my GTK app (Zrythm) on many distros and Guix is the only case that the monitor's refresh rate is returned as 0. The API I am using is this: https://developer.gnome.org/gdk3/stable/GdkMonitor.html#gdk-monitor-get-refresh-rate I was developing/testing on Parabola

bug#37850: Glib documentation is missing

2019-11-08 Thread Alexandros Theodotou
I missed this part. glib documentation must be built with gtk-doc which in turn depends on glib, so we need to define glib-minimal which does not depend on gtk-doc. In this case the way I have seen other distros do it is by having a *-bootstrap package (same as the *-minimal that you mention

bug#37850: Glib documentation is missing

2019-11-08 Thread Alexandros Theodotou
I am new to guix so please excuse my ignorance, but is there an issue with just adding a "doc" output to the current glib, as mentioned in the manual? http://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/guix.html#Packages-with-Multiple-Outputs I find this approach nice and clean and I am personally not too fond of
