Yes, indeed. Notmuch uses hooks scripts that I provide.
So far, I was relying on `home-xdg-configuration-files-service-type`
to copy them.
```scheme
(service home-xdg-configuration-files-service-type
`(("notmuch/default/hooks" ,(local-file "tanguy.home/notmuch_hooks"
#:recursive? #t))
; […]
))
```
Now I have to find an easy way to substitute some content in them.
I'll give it a try with `find-files` and `substitute` unless you can
suggest a better way… 🤞

Configuration specific! Fortunately I have a not-yet-submitted home
service for that. So I can easily insert the absolute path! 🥳

I'm pretty sure this does not exist for mcron.

For this, I cannot really provide the full path? 🤔 … actually, I could, but then it would be `/home/USER/.guix-home/profile/bin/mbsync`, not the actual path. This should work, but I can help be find it a bit weird, because it propagates to quite a number of files. 😞 And the same goes for `vdirsyncer` that relies on `pass`… Oh, actually, I've just figured out that this doesn't actually work, because my `USER` is not the same on all my computers! 😱 And I cannot rely on `$HOME` because it's not supported by all the configuration files that are affected.

How to effectively ask for help with Guix? Date: Wed, 03 Jan 2024 04:07:35 +0000
Hi Ben, I installed GNU Guix approx. 2 years ago. I didn't know almost anything. The help of Guixers was awesome, even my little knowledge of English didn't stop it. They helped me so much, that I was astonished about their endeavour. I managed, only through Guixers, to get my system running and even to manage several profiles in which I have installed my programmes/packages. I have got now everything I wanted for the time being and am very thankful. Guix - like a family, people care about each other. So be patient because there is a lot of work to be done and too few people to take this heavy load (I guess). Gottfried

It's possible to do in several ways: 1) Use full path to the binary with ungexp, e.g. preferred and cleaner: #$(file-append notmuch "/bin/notmuch") or: (string-append #$notmuch "/bin/notmuch") Hint: make sure notmuch is defined, e.g. at the top of a file: (use-modules (gnu packages mail)) 2) Symlink resolving in a Guix profile, e.g.: "/home/user123/.guix-profile/bin/notmuch" or (readlink "/home/user123/.guix-profile/bin/notmuch") I would recommend for 1) because of reproducibility and easier to track in future, especially if you have a lot of self managed services.

You mean inside the `#~(job …)`? Sorry, but… how would you do that? 😅 And this means that I would have to do it for every single job? 🤔 Sounds suboptimal to me.

Cross-compilation arm-none-eabi
Hello! I'm trying to use `qmk` to build firmware for my keyboard, but i'm running into cross complilation issues that i have no idea where to start on. When running in a shell with `qmk` i get arm-none-eabi-gcc: command not found The only maybe related package i've been able to find is `raspi-arm-chainloader`, however this fails to build (it seems also in CI) https://data.guix.gnu.org/revision/45a6af1c18b254e2a5bb26c6bab465c3d4476a75/package/raspi-arm-chainloader/0.1?locale=en_US.UTF-8 <- link to failing build on data.guix.gnu.org Am i missing something? How would i make the cross-compile gcc available in a shell environment? Thx, Kristoffer
"Command not found" when using `home-mcron-service`
Dear Guix, I had stop using `home-mcron-service` some times ago, for I had a problem with my home shepherd. Now that this problem seems to be fixed 🤞, I've tried to re-enable `home-mcron-service` and, while it runs, it cannot find the commands to execute!? I used to have this config: ```scheme (service home-mcron-service-type (home-mcron-configuration (jobs (list #~(job '(next-minute (range 0 60 5)) "notmuch new") #~(job '(next-hour) "vdirsyncer sync") ``` But I now have `notmuch new: sh: line 1: notmuch: command not found` in my logs. So, I changed it to: ```scheme (gnu packages dav) ; vdirsyncer (gnu packages mail) ; notmuch ; […] (service home-mcron-service-type (home-mcron-configuration (jobs (list #~(job '(next-minute (range 0 60 5)) (string-append #$notmuch "/bin/notmuch new")) #~(job '(next-hour) (string-append #$vdirsyncer "/bin/vdirsyncer sync")) ``` And now Mcron finds `notmuch` (and `vdirsyncer`), but… Notmuch has hooks that depend on other commands and I now have the following error message in my logs: ``` 2024-01-15 10:20:00 6198 /gnu/store/[…]-notmuch-0.37/bin/notmuch new: […]/.config/notmuch/default/hooks/pre-new: line 3: mbsync: command not found ``` `mbsync` is in my profile, but Mcron cannot find it. Do I have to declare all the required packages… somehow?! 🤔 Any help welcome! Regards, -- Tanguy
