Personal Introduction

Hello GNU Guix development community. My name is Charlie, and I am interested in joining the Guix development community. I was wondering if there are any small tasks or projects that I could start with to learn about the project's source. I would like to add that I am pretty new to Guile, but

Re: Needs enhancement: "is my guix current?"

Hello, I think if you never run 'guix refresh', then the guix installed should always be newer than the guix known to guix. The argument is as followed: When you install guix, the guix known to guix is at least 1 commit older than the installed guix. When you run 'guix pull', the installed guix i

Hi, Alex Vong skribis: > I think if you never run 'guix refresh', then the guix installed should > always be newer than the guix known to guix. I think you mean ‘guix pull’, in which case I agree. (‘guix refresh’ is more of a developer tool: it simplifies updating package definitions.) Ludo’.

guile-wm / xcb questions

I am able to use guile-wm. It starts, I can work it for a very long time without crashing. I'm trying to learn more about it so that I can extend it. Now there's a problem where I'm not sure if the problem lies within the Guix package or my way to load the module: > scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modul

I might have found a way to work around the issue, I don't know if it solves the real problem, but might work for you. See the message I wrote in [1]. [1] . 2017-12-08T19:07:08-0200 D4n1 wrote: > Guix, > > Follow gdb output on c

Re: emacs-25.3 aborted

The problem is in GTK modules with Emacs. I installed the emacs-no-x-toolkit and it works. --- Daniel Pimentel (d4n1) On 2017-12-12 11:01, Adonay Felipe Nogueira wrote: I might have found a way to work around the issue, I don't know if it solves the real problem, but might work for you. See t

Re: Needs enhancement: "is my guix current?"

Hello, I think I've confused things a bit. Well, 'guix refresh' updates package definitions to match the latest upstream version, but we are the upstream, so it is not useful here. I think even if 'guix pull' is being run, the guix installed should always be newer than the guix known to guix, rig

Memoization profiling

Hello Guix, Memoization plays a critical role in the performance of Guix. I’ve finally added support to profile memoization, which should allow us to better understand how it performs and to use it more wisely: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=252c4083779a488c86e74362b4f3
