[PATCH] build: ruby: Rewrite build system to use gem archives.
Hello Guix hackers, This patch represents a large change to how we're building Ruby packages. Previously, we would download tarballs (mostly auto-generated ones on GitHub), build the .gem archive, then install it to the output directory. This method presented several issues. No one besides us is actually using these tarballs to build gems, and often the gems will not build outside of a git repository due to the proliferation of 'git ls-files' usage when building the gem. After some more exploration, those of us interested in Ruby packaging agreed that the pre-made .gem archives hosted on rubygems.org are in fact source code, and that our build system could be greatly simplified by using them. Using these gem archives will also allow for a 'guix import rubygems' tool to be written, greatly accelerating our packaging efforts. One known caveat is that not all gem archives include the test suite, so sometimes we have to do without tests. However, the Ruby dependency graph already has other testing issues like rampant circular dependencies, so I don't think this issue is a big deal in comparison. Anyway, I only had to disable a couple of test suites for existing gems, and I was happy that the issue wasn't too widespread among our (currently small) sample size. One other caveat is that downloading gems from rubygems.org currently *does not* work because the HTTP responses include an invalid Content-Type header. I added a temporary hack to do my development work (not in this patch), and I'm currently waiting on a response from the rubygems.org admins to see if they will fix the issue. So, this patch should not be applied until this is resolved. See: http://help.rubygems.org/discussions/problems/21223-invalid-content-type-header-when-downloading-gem-archive?unresolve=true Without further ado, the patch: >From 70c827becb2ef3909e817091676425eacb32d381 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Thompson Date: Sun, 26 Jul 2015 22:01:54 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] build: ruby: Rewrite build system to use gem archives.

Problems with grub2
Hello Guix hackers,
i am trying to install GuixSD 0.8.3. I am using this configuration
and try to install it on a USB disk:
;; This is an operating system configuration template
;; for a "bare bones" setup, with no X11 display server.
(use-modules (gnu))
(use-service-modules networking ssh)
(use-package-modules admin)
(operating-system
(host-name "amanita")
(timezone "Europe/Berlin")
(locale "en_US.UTF-8")
;; Assuming /dev/sdX is the target hard disk, and "root" is
;; the label of the target root file system.
(bootloader (grub-configuration (device "/dev/sdb")))
(file-systems (cons (file-system
(device "/dev/sdb1")
(title 'device)
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
%base-file-systems))
;; This is where user accounts are specified. The "root"
;; account is implicit, and is initially created with the
;; empty password.
(users (cons (user-account
(name "fabian")
(comment "fabian")
(group "users")
;; Adding the account to the "wheel" group
;; makes it a sudoer. Adding it to "audio"
;; and "video" allows the user to play sound
;; and access the webcam.
(supplementary-groups '("wheel"
"audio" "video"))
(home-directory "/home/fabian"))
%base-user-accounts))
;; Globally-installed packages.
(packages (cons tcpdump %base-packages))
;; Add services to the baseline: a DHCP client and
;; an SSH server.
(services (cons* (dhcp-client-service)
(lsh-service #:port-number )
%base-services)))
First i tried it with (locale "de_DE.UTF-8") but guix told me that de_DE is
not available. This is of course changeable after installation but will it
be added to the guix installation later?
When i try the installation as mentioned above everything is fine until the
installation of grub. Grub tells me that there are multiple labels assigned
to the device. When i look into /dev/disk/by-label i find one label for a
partition. Is there a way to get rid of this disk labels? I tried it with
parted but that brought no help. In the configuration i am telling that i
want to use device names. Why is grub2 using labels anyway??? I am not sure
what is the source of the problem. With Nix i have the same issue when i
try to install grub2. Grub1 is working fine. Will Grub1 be added to guix? I
have not found a Nix configuration which tells nix to use devices instead
of labels.
Looking forward for any help. By the way i really want to have a working
Guix system. After seeing Ludovics Fosdem talk i am so excited about guix.
What a wonderful idea!
Yours sincerely,
Fabian
