This ensures that channel modules are compiled with the right Guile,
that they get to see the right modules, and so on. IOW, it avoids bugs
such as those addressed by commits
3c0e16391ed9a3e3e4611b940fb393c5f2ecea63 and
cb341c121919877ae6267a6460c0c17536d06eff.
* guix/channels.scm (standard-module-derivation): Add 'core'
parameter. Rewrite in terms of 'gexp->derivation-in-inferior'.
(build-from-source): Add #:core parameter and pass it to
'standard-module-derivation'.
(build-channel-instance): Add 'core' parameter and pass it on.
(channel-instance-derivations)[dependencies]: Remove.
Adjust 'build-channel-instance' call.
Previous 'channel-instance->manifest' would call
'latest-channel-derivation', which could trigger another round of
'latest-repository-commit' for no good reason.
* guix/channels.scm (resolve-dependencies): New procedure.
(channel-instance-derivations)[edges]: New variable.
[instance->derivation]: New procedure.
* tests/channels.scm (make-instance): Use 'checkout->channel-instance'
instead of 'channel-instance'.
("channel-instances->manifest"): New test.
* gnu/packages.scm (cache-is-authoritative?, load-package-cache)
(cache-lookup, generate-package-cache): New procedures.
(%package-cache-file): New variable.
(find-packages-by-name): Rename to...
(find-packages-by-name/direct): ... this.
(find-packages-by-name): Rewrite to use the package cache when
'cache-is-authoritative?' returns true.
* tests/packages.scm ("find-packages-by-name + version, with cache")
("find-packages-by-name with cache"): New tests.
* guix/channels.scm (package-cache-file): New procedure.
(%channel-profile-hooks): New variable.
(channel-instances->derivation): Use it in #:hooks.
* guix/scripts/package.scm (build-and-use-profile): Add #:hooks and
honor it.
* guix/scripts/pull.scm (build-and-install): Pass #:hooks to
UPDATE-PROFILE.
This halves the number of elements in %LOAD-PATH and %LOAD-COMPILED-PATH
and halves the number of 'stat' calls as reported by:
env -i $(type -P guix) build -e '(@ (gnu packages base) coreutils)' -nd
* guix/self.scm (node-source+compiled, guile-module-union): New
procedures.
(guix-command): Remove 'compiled-modules' parameter. Remove
'source-directories' and 'object-directories' variables and add
'module-directory'. Change command so that it adds nothing but
MODULE-DIRECTORY to %LOAD-PATH and %LOAD-COMPILED-PATH.
(whole-package): Remove #:compiled-modules. Assume MODULES contains
'share/guile/site' and 'lib/guile' and adjust code accordingly.
(compiled-guix): When PULL-VERSION is 1, use 'node-source+compiled'
only. Remove #:compiled-modules argument to 'whole-package'.
* guix/channels.scm (whole-package-for-legacy): Add 'module+compiled'
and pass it to 'whole-package'.
* guix/channels.scm (<channel-metadata>): New record.
(read-channel-metadata, channel-instance-dependencies): New procedures.
(latest-channel-instances): Include channel dependencies; add optional
argument PREVIOUS-CHANNELS.
(channel-instance-derivations): Build derivation for additional channels and
add it as dependency to the channel instance derivation.
* doc/guix.texi (Channels): Add subsection "Declaring Channel Dependencies".
* tests/channels.scm: New file.
* Makefile.am (SCM_TESTS): Add it.
Fixes a regression introduced in
aed0a594058a59bc3bb1d2686391dc0e8a181b1f whereby external channels would
fail to build due to the lack of a (git) module.
Reported by Alex ter Weele on #guix.
* guix/channels.scm (channel-instance-derivations)[guile-gcrypt]:
Remove.
[dependencies]: New variable.
Use it in the 2nd argument to 'build-channel-instance'.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/32618>.
Reported by Eric Brown <brown@fastmail.com>.
* guix/git.scm (update-cached-checkout): Remove "origin/" from default
REF. Define CANONICAL-REF and use it instead of REF.
(latest-repository-commit): Remove "origin/" from default REF.
* guix/channels.scm (%default-channels): Remove "origin/" from
'branch'.
This fixes a regression introduced in
ca719424455465fca4b872c371daf2a46de88b33 whereby external channels would
fail to build due to the lack of (gcrypt …) modules.
* guix/channels.scm (channel-instance-derivations): Add 'guile-gcrypt'.
Pass it along CORE to 'build-channel-instance'.
* guix/channels.scm: New file.
* Makefile.am (MODULES): Add it.
* guix/scripts/pull.scm: Use it.
(%default-options): Remove 'repository-url' and 'ref'.
(show-help, %options): Add '--channels'.
(%self-build-file, %pull-version, build-from-source)
(whole-package-for-legacy, derivation->manifest-entry): Remove. These
now exist in a similar form in (guix channels).
(build-and-install): Change 'source' to 'instances'. Remove #:url,
#:branch, and #:commit. Rewrite using 'channel-instances->manifest'.
(channel-list): New procedure.
(guix-pull): Parameterize %REPOSITORY-CACHE-DIRECTORY. Call
'honor-lets-encrypt-certificates!' unconditionally. Load
~/.config/guix/channels.scm. Rewrite to use (guix channels).
[use-le-certs?]: Remove.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Add (guix channels).
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix pull): Group the description of '--url',
'--commit', and '--branch'. Remove mention of 'GUIX_PULL_URL'. Add
references to "Channels". Document '--channels'.
(Channels): New node.
(Defining Packages): Link to "Channels" instead of "Package Modules".
(Invoking guix edit): Link to "Package Modules" instead of "Defining
Packages".
(Package Modules): Document both GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH and channels.
