I can only think that one of the packages you updated as part of your work on the KDE Framework must be a dependency of many others (such as Python, or another core tool)? Sorry, I don't have other ideas. Maxim
Volatile? argument seems to be ignored for system disk images
I am trying to dive into some of the code that goes into generating system disk images for guix, and I ran into the following: It seems that commit 932e1f92404d917a91af28737d6631ec45b56875 did more than what the commit log said: > vm: Make sure disk image initrds load 'usb-storage.ko'. > > Reported by David Thompson . > > * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image): Add usb-storage.ko to the > initrd. This commit effectively made the `#:volatile?' kwarg to `system-disk-image' redundant. Should we remove `#:volatile?', or should it be passed along instead of #t? Or am I misunderstanding something subtle here, and is everything as it should be? Regards, Jelle

I'll look into setting up SDDM. -- s/Fred[re]+i[ck]+/Fredrik/g
Re: Errors in modules are suppressed?
Do you guys run into the same problem? I mean, I can debug this by manually importing the module in the `guix repl`, but it would be nice to see it in the `guix system` invocation. Do you use modules? Should I use something else? Should I include the module in a different way? On 10/14/19 12:50 AM, Daniel Schäfer wrote: Hi all, I'm using modules to split up my system configuration in multiple files (not sure whether that's the right approach). However, when a used module contains an error, `guix system` does not provide a helpful error message, it just says: $ sudo guix system build config.scm ice-9/eval.scm:223:20: In procedure proc: error: bar: unbound variable hint: Did you forget `(use-modules (foo))'? when I try to use `bar` in my original file. For a minimal working example, change your system's configuration file like this: --8<---cut here---start->8--- +(add-to-load-path ".") -(use-modules (gnu)) +(use-modules (gnu) + (foo)) (use-service-modules desktop networking ssh xorg) (operating-system - (locale "en_US.utf8") + (locale bar) --8<---cut here---end->8--- And add the new module foo.scm, which contains an error by design: --8<---cut here---start->8--- (define-module (foo) #:export (bar)) (this is not defined) (define bar "en_US.utf8") --8<---cut here---end->8--- I'd be glad to hear about any tips to get the proper error message.

no sway.desktop file for GDM
Hi Guix, Is there a reason why the sway package doesn't create a sway.desktop file in *out*/share/wayland-sessons for GDM? I see that most X tiling wms create on in *out*/share/xsessons. I tried adding one myself by copying the code from herbstluftwm and modify it but got stuck on permissions when I tried to run guix built from my local clone. So before I continue debugging that I though I would ask. Thanks -- s/Fred[re]+i[ck]+/Fredrik/g
Tons of packages get rebuild
Hi, I'm again experiencing wired behavior on my system: When trying to rebuild KDE Framework based on c37c8ef (2019-10-18 20:35:28), tons of packages get rebuild, including ruby, llvm-8.0.0, gcc, glibc, openssl, mariadb, linux-PAM, etc. Since my computer is not quite fast, this is running since Saturday morning already. Looks like I've broken my setup. Daemon is running with guix-daemon --build-users-group=guixbuild --substitute-urls=https://ci.guix.gnu.org $ /usr/local/sbin/guix-daemon --version guix-daemon (GNU Guix) 1.0.1-6.0ed97e6 $ ./pre-inst-env guix --version guix (GNU Guix) 1.0.1.3831-dec845 -- which is my branch based on c37c8ef Building packages with e.g. $ ./pre-inst-env guix build -K attica What's wrong here? -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | h.goe...@crazy-compilers.com | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible |
Re: Problem logging in using GDM
Hi Joshua Le 10/19, Joshua Branson a écrit : > For now, I use sway wm. I do not have a login manager. I just run sway > at login. That is something that you could try. :) Sounds like a good solution! I use bspwm anyway. But then I would have to find a way to make the TTY screen more… mmm… sexy! :-) Is there other services that I can get rid of from the %desktop-services? Like NetworkManager?

I don't use gnome-shell, but bspwm, so I guess it is a pure gdm problem. The fact that it works with slim seems to confirm this. "Funny" thing, I have 2 different problems! At home, GDM does not even start. I just see the mouse pointer on the TTY. Nothing really informative in the logs. Just an endless succession of "New session c1 of user gdm […] closing session […] New session c2 of user gdm […]". At work, I can see the GDM screen, but when I provide my username/password nothing happens. I'll try to update my laptop at the WE. Hope I won't end up with yet another variation of the problem! ^_^' If I have some meaningful logs, I'll post them here. -- Tanguy
