bug#56625: [core-updates] libaio test fails on powerpc64le-linux due to kernel bug

[Thiago Jung Bauermann via Bug reports for GNU Guix]

On the core-updates branch, libaio has been updated to version 0.3.113.
This version contains a new test which fails on guixp9 (one of the
powerpc64le-linux builders) due to a bug present in the kernel it is
running:

The header of libaio/harness/cases/23.t says:

 * Verify that aio poll doesn't miss any events.  This is a regression test for
 * kernel commit 363bee27e258 ("aio: keep poll requests on waitqueue until
 * completed")¹.

guixp9 is running kernel linux-image-5.10.0-0.bpo.8-powerpc64le version
5.10.46-4~bpo10+1. The kernel commit mentioned above was backported to
upstream stable kernel 5.10.85, which was included in Debian's
linux-image version 5.10.92-1, available in the buster-backports kernel.

So long story short, we need to update guixp9's kernel so that we can
build core-update's libaio. I suggest we take the opportunity to update
all of the Debian packages as well.

I don't have access to guixp9's console, so unfortunately I can't
perform the update. Or rather, I can if someone else reboots the machine
afterwards and fixes any boot issues that could come up (hopefully not
but it's always a possibility).

Commit 4ff12d1de7cd617b791996ee7ca1240660b4c20e introduced that bug,
which was fixed in c9fbd40785a99e13a59d8e530830ce85220a9871:

  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/56441

‘guix describe’ should show that you’re using a commit in that range.

The solution is to run ‘time-machine’ from a commit outside that range,
for instance with:

  guix time-machine -- time-machine -C channels.scm -- whatever

I should add that this is on GuixSD.

Hi! It’s a gdk-pixbuf issue. I’ve been living with this for a while
now, on the current and previous Ubuntu Unity as base. I can only get
Inkscape and several other GTK applications to work, when I use a shell
and enter
`export 
GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE=/home/thorwil/.guix-profile/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache`
before `inkscape` and co.
If I have that in ~/.profile, Ubuntu-native stuff breaks.
~/.profile does contain export
`GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache`

I guess one could set up aliases or place wrappers in /usr/local/bin,
but I couldn’t be bothered to do so, so far.

bug#56619: Inkscape crashes on startup, renders package unusable

bug#56334: Should asdf-build-system/sbcl use load-system instead of compile-system?

[Pierre Neidhardt]

I've pushed the SBCL closure size reduction.

I'll be the road for a while, unable to work on this patch, so if anyone
wants to work on it and merge, please go ahead :)

Left to do:

- Suggestion: add a keyword to choose between asdf:compile-system and
  asdf:load-system (default should be asdf:load-system).
- Make sure sbcl-stumpwm-kbd-layouts usees asdf:compile-system.
- Rebuild the Lisp world to test.

Cheers!
Pierre

Doing it before the install phase requires also patching the build
scripts.  There are a bunch of other bugs calling me sadly, so I'm not
super keen on putting more energy into this one.

It's not a bug, use ‘`(".config/git/config" ,(local-file ...))’.

I'll close the issue if you don't mind.

bug#56610: Guix Home placing dotfiles in wrong directory.

[Raghav Gururajan via Bug reports for GNU Guix]

Hello Guix,

home-files-service-type is placing configuration files in `~/config/foo` 
instead of `~/.config/foo`.


For example, the following guix-home service should place the git 
configuration in ~/.config/git`. But it creates a new directory 
`~/config/git` and places the file there.


(simple-service 'git-config
home-files-service-type
(list
 `("config/git/config"
   ,(local-file
 (string-append (getenv "HOME")
"/dotfiles/git/config")

It started happening recently, so will try to bisect.

Regards,
RG.
