"Could not resolve host" while using git-fetch

2023-01-13 Thread Zach Philipchook
Hello!

I'm trying to define and build a package with guix on Arch Linux. I'm
getting a "Could not resolve host: github.com" error when building. The
nscd daemon is running. I'm not experiencing any name resolution problems
outside guix.

The package definition: https://pastebin.com/UJEm396s
guix command I'm executing: `guix package --manifest=manifest.scm -v3`
guix log: https://pastebin.com/NYbH8iGX
nscd command: `sudo nscd --debug`
nscd log: https://pastebin.com/UCsxvQnc

There's nothing related to "github.com" in the nscd log, which makes me
question whether it is used for the name resolution at all. Since, for
example, if I run `ping github.com` on the host, I do see "github.com"
being mentioned in the nscd log.

How to use the package sane-airscan?

2023-01-13 Thread Kabelo Moiloa via
Hello there, even though when I =guix install sane-airscan= and run 
=airscan-discover= I see my scanner listed it isn't listed when I try to find 
it using =simple-scan=. I tried modifying the sane-service-type to have the 
following values: sane-backends, sane-backends-minimal and sane-airscan and 
none of that worked either: simple-scan still fails.

Seahorse does not start up when invoked via Gnome shell

2023-01-13 Thread Daniel Meißner
Hi Guix,

when I invoke Seahorse, the password manager, via Gnome shell it does
not start up.  It does not even show up in the activity panel at the
top.  However, when I spawn a terminal and enter `seahorse' at the
command-line it starts up instantly.  Does anyone have a clue what's
going on?

Best,
Daniel



thermald updated to suport Intel Alder Lake CPUs

2023-01-13 Thread Thompson, David
Hello everyone,

I suspected my laptop was having some overheating issues this morning
and I realized that I wasn't running thermald like I should. So, I
added the thermald service to my OS config but the service failed to
start because my CPU wasn't supported. Turns out that was because our
thermald package was at version 2.4.7 which did not have support for
12th gen Intel Alder Lake CPUs. I upgrade our package to 2.5.1 and now
thermald works. If you have an Alder Lake CPU and want thermald to
actually work, you should run 'guix pull' and then reconfigure your
system!
