bug#40376: Netpbm-10.78.3 doesn't installs libnetpbm.so file

2020-04-01 Thread R Veera Kumar
Hi, The netpbm-10.78.3 doesn't installs libnetpbm.so file in pkg/lib. Only libnetpbm.so.11 libnetpbm.so.11.78 are installed. Packages which specify -lnetpbm while building fail for shared linking. Found while building xplanet-1.3.1. Thanks, R Veera Kumar

bug#40652: GDM does not starts after April 10 system reconfigure

2020-04-15 Thread R Veera Kumar
I am using guix.git master branch. I did guix system reconfigure on April 10 with gnome, mate, xfce and enlightenment service-types. It was working. And next day I again did that and gdm does not starts anymore. Initial console says: New session c1 of user gdm. Removed session c1. /var/log/

bug#40652: SLIM is working though with gnome, mate, xfce and enlightenment

2020-04-15 Thread R Veera Kumar
I checked that the installed system is working with SLIM. All gnome, mate, xfce and enlightenment are working. Perhaps the gdm patch for 1.1.0 release is causing the problem, which changes xsession path. Regards, Veera
