Can this get reviewed? It looks like it fell between the cracks.

One thing I know that I have run into, and have heard so many times over
from those on Windows is how unstable or much of a hassle it can be to get
games to work. In the last few weeks, I spent ~20 hours just to this
hassle myself. Having everything includ
Hello all,
I've been quiet these past few months with a move, new job, and stuff.
I'm doing a write up for my new work. Came across `guix import`.
Great work there, and definitely a time saver.
Correct. Moved, new job, and other stuff came up so I had to drop guix
participation for a bit. Not ready to pick it back up yet.

The thing is that I want those dependencies in order to illustrate the bug
that the readline module for guile is not available.

Hello all,
I ran into an issue where the readline module isn't available for the
guile repl after installing `guile-readline`. It can be replicated
via:
`echo "(use-modules (ice-9 readline))" | guix environment --pure guile
guile-readline -- guile`
So with that, I'm pretty sure it isn't just me
Packages are mainly contributed or updated by those who need them. I don't
need that package for my work, but many of us in this ML will be happy to
guide you in packaging it.

Hi Zimoun,
The HTTP headers of the page indicate that the file hasn't changed since
1970. This is a bug. That incorrect date breaks repology.org trying to
track guix packages.

Hello all,
Continuing my Sunday catch-up, I'd like to kick the tires on this.
Tarballs seem to have the following:
+ Faster to build
+ Faster first time download
- Larger downloads for smaller changes
- Autotools are pre-built, negating bootstrapping
- SWH not yet supported (https://forge.softwar
Checking http://guix.gnu.org/packages.json again, it seems like the
server changes to not misrepresent dates have not been applied yet.
Can someone get in and do that?

Yeah, I noticed this, too but wasn't going to say anything. That footer is
outlandish. I think you ought to nix the whole thing.

Hello all,
One thing which I think could significantly aid adoption would be up
either add an option or add a new installer script with guix
configured to install and run purely out of the user's home directory
without any special permissions. Conceptually, guix shouldn't need to
have any elevate
Bringing back this necrothread, what you are suggesting is something I
would find intuitive. Sounds like a good idea to me.

It is. I added a few things there, too. I've been running into a headache
dealing with alternate package names between distros.

If that is an appropriate use, I'll go with that. Prepare for a few

This back and forth is what I've been having going on in my head. We might
be able to leverage repology.org for their work on mapping packages across
distros. Yesterday, civodul entered a bug to remove the Etag and
last-modified headers in the nginx config to fix a bug on our side so

I'm starting to collect software that needs packaging, and one thing I'm
running into is that naming conventions between the source project, various
distros, and guix itself have some drift. Something which seems low effort
but would ease translating between various nomenclatures would be to track

I'll echo Jack's suggestions for golang and rust build systems and secrets

debug packages and in keeping more packages up to date.
`python3 -m pip install pycurl` fails due to glibc not being able to find
the header "linux/limits.h". I am aware that there is a "python-pycurl"
package in guix, but the above should still work. I think glibc is missing
a dependency on linux headers, but I'm not sure that all this is
actionable.
