[PATCH 1/2] svn-download: Respect current-http-proxy when downloading.

When downloading a repository through SVN over HTTP, do it using a proxy if possible. This is especially useful for people who use Tor to do all their downloading. This doesn't work with svn:// repositories to my knowledge. * guix/build/svn.scm (svn-fetch): Pass the "servers:global:http-proxy-host

[PATCH 2/2] git-download: Respect current-http-proxy when downloading.

Enable the use of HTTP proxies for Git and add a helper program for proxying the non-HTTP git:// protocol. The program connects standard input/output to a remote server. To accomplish this for now, socat is used. * guix/build/git.scm (module): Export git-proxy. (git-fetch): Take a proxy paramete

The tricky case of "--localstatedir=/var"

Hey there, Over the past month a few people (myself included) have been hit by the 'gotcha' of not running ./configure with "--localstatedir=/var". It doesn't say this in the documentation but I question whether not having it as /var is a sane default. I'm sure this is somehow tied to the conventi

Re: Adding idle3-tools while unable to run ‘guix lint’

Thanks Pjotr! I would have naively expected ‘gnutls’ to be a dependency of ‘guix’ and available to the latter at run time (wrappers; magic), but I guess that's not how Guile/Guix works? On 16 February 2016 at 08:26, Pjotr Prins wrote: > guile gnutls is missing which means it should be installed

[PATCH] Add genome annotations.

Hi Guix, here are four patches to add genome annotation packages for R. The species names (“Mouse”, “Worm”, “Human”, “Fly”) are capitalised because they refer to the names of common model organisms. ~~ Ricardo PS: for the curious: “hs” = “Homo sapiens” (human), “ce” = “Caenorhabditis elegans” (

Hi, also, even worse, when using a fine git checkout for some time, you will from time to time do this: $ git pull $ make check If this touches stuff autoconf cares about, make will do ./configure again and leave localstatedir off. Then lots (32) of the tests will fail. Just happened again...
