bug#41140: “guix system” suggests wrong module import when using “remove”

If possible, I'd just make it search all the modules with that binding that
are available in the search path.  It's okay if that's slow--since it's a
fatal error case anyway.

Then it could say "either (rnrs lists) or (srfi srfi-1), but probably not
both".

Better than hardcoding preferences...

So in short, known-variable-definition shouldn't find the "best" module but
rather all modules with such a binding.  Also, it sounds like that just
searches the currently-loaded modules.  Aren't that too few?

If we don't want that for some reason, we can just add "srfi srfi-1" to the
last "match" form where it already prefers "(gnu ...)", but that's gonna
turn into whack-a-mole fast.

bug#41144: core-updates merged!

[Nicolò Balzarotti]

Hi! I guix pull-ed yesterday night!
The system continues to work well, but on the boot I get a lot of
warnings, something like "WARNING: {g#45} importing (guix utils) conflicts with 
an
existing identifier `delete'" (or something similar, I already forgot
and don't know where to find the log).

Am I the only one? In that case, I'll reboot and report the correct warning

Many thanks :)
Nicolò

bug#41146: [Cuirass] Build non-substitutable packages

[Brice Waegeneire]

Hello Guix,

It would be useful to build non-substitutable packages on cuirass, 
without offering substitutes for it, to catch broken packages.  For 
example ATM the zfs package is broken but it hasn't been noticed because 
it isn't present on ci.guix.gnu.org[0].


This wish item follows a discussion on IRC[1].

bug#40558: (no subject)

[elaexuotee]

I encountered a similar issue while trying to package something with a 
texlive-union input. Tracking down the issue has killed way too many hours.

FWIW, the `working.tex' minimal example is also giving me similar problems:

With the patch to texlive-amsfonts the above typesets just fine; however, 
metafont ends up generating cmmi10.657pk and cmr10.657pk font files. Is this 
expected? Typsetting it from the texlive installation of my foreign distro 
doesn't call out to metafont at all.

bug#37244: Icecat Audio Issues

[Martin Becze]

I also have this problem with icecat. With ungoogled-chromuim the video
is scrambled. I wonder if the two issues are possible related.

bug#41154: [cuirass]: Build duration time is wrong

[Jonathan Brielmaier]

At some builds the build duration time seems to be wrongly calculated:
http://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1672744/details -> 1568730254 seconds which
seems like unix time stamp for the finished time: Tue 17 Sep 16:24:14

Some times it's correct, 11 seconds:

bug#41158: `guix` command segfaults after doing Ctrl-C during a frozen `guix pull`

[JoJo]

Due to an unrelated issue, I was updating my system with `guix
pull`. During update, the process seemed to freeze / get stuck. My
system was responsive and all, but the `guix pull` output was stuck. I
don't remember what the last line in the output was, but after
studying the output of an application of
`/run/current-system/profile/bin/guix`, I think the output stuck at
the last step, "building profile with 1 package...". It definitely
said something about "profile" and "1 package" at least. I don't know
what caused the freeze. A casual guess is that it's related to my
screen blanking and the screen locker (`slock`) activatin due to no
input for a while.

Anyways, I decided to end the apparently frozen command, so I killed
it with Ctrl-C. Immediately afterwards when trying to `guix pull`
another time, `guix` just started segfaulting. Doesn't matter what
subcommand I try, or if I call `guix` with no subbcommand -- it just
segfaults in either case.

```
jojo@astoria ~$ guix pull
Segmentation fault
jojo@astoria ~$ guix
Segmentation fault
jojo@astoria ~$ guix show
Segmentation fault
```

I'm on Guix System, with a linux-nonfree kernel (due to wifi card).
Installing `strace` with
`/run/current-system/profile/bin/guix install strace`
and running `strace -f guix 2>&1 | tee tmp/log` prints:

I just tried to replicate this and restarted the guix-publish daemon on my
machine a couple of times and no crash. Restarting the guix-daemon also
didn't make my machine crash. I'm closing this bug, will revisit if it
happens again.

I ended up looking at this again in relation to Repology [1].

1: 
https://github.com/repology/repology-updater/issues/218#issuecomment-525905704

Going back to that comment, given that the Last-Modified header (and the
ETag) is wrong, it's probably sensible to remove them. That might even
fix the issue with Repology fetching the packages.json file.

Alternatively (or in addition), we could run a really simple Guile web
server that just serves the packages.json file with the right
Last-Modified value, and have NGinx proxy requests to that server. This
would be pretty easy to setup I believe, and would allow providing a
correct value.

Thoughts?

I just realised that I missed the necessary

[Wensheng Xie]

Hi,


Thanks.

The problem is solved by doing 'guix pull' again.

Could you check the contents of the file above?  It seems to be corrupt,
which could be the result of a hard disk corruption, possibly due to
hardware issues.

Thanks in advance,

Yup!  Plus, the person who reviewed the patch, undoubtedly an equally
nice person, didn’t notice the issue either.  :-)

Yes.

I was also wondering if it would make sense for services to somehow
state the major+minor version they’re targeting.
