[PATCH] gnu: ffmpeg: Move flags into their own argument.

Hey everyone, Here's a simple patch which makes it easier to customize ffmpeg's configure flags when inheriting from the package. The reason I wanted to do this was so that I could enable TLS support for ffmpeg locally. The comment in the configure flags specifies that the tests fail with gnutls

Re: [PATCH 1/1] gnu: lua: Build with dynamic library support.

I'm still working on this but I found something interesting that I want to ask the list about. Attached is a diff of the build logs for lua-5.1 from master and lua-5.1 for the patch I sent upthread. You may notice that they share the `make` invocation, but that gcc is being invoked with different

Service customization

Hi Guix! A fairly common pattern in GuixSD is: You want to use whatever is in ‘%desktop-services’, say, but you want to tweak the configuration of some of the services in there. This is where the ‘modify-services’ macro comes in, inspired by Taylan’s ‘modify-phases’: Occasionally, instead o

Removing Aarddict is fine with me, especially if upstream has more or less abandoned the current code base. Maybe wait a couple more days before removing it, just in case. Maybe we can leave ‘python2-pyqt-4’, though. Ludo’.

Substitutes from multiple server

It’s now possible to really use multiple substitute servers, as in: guix build foo --substitute-urls='http://example.org http://hydra.gnu.org' Here Guix first looks for substitutes at example.org, and then falls back to gnu.org for those that were not found. The basics were in place but commit

Aarddict, an offline wikipedia browser, does not work any more since we removed webkit from qt-4; there is an error at runtime. It was me who added it at some point in time, and I suspect being the only user (well, I do not use it much anymore either, or I would have noticed the problem earlier). I
