Controling requirements when packaging haskell modules

2018-05-11 Thread Ton
Hi, I'm trying to package ghc-sdl2, but have hit a problem with requirements I don't understand how to get past. The work so far can be seen and downloaded from https://notabug.org/thomassgn/guixsd-configuration/src/master/modules/ton-haskell.scm As you can see I have made some hackery with

As suggested in the previous thread mentioned by Tobias, I checked if the man page encoding could be the root of the issue... And indeed it as: as soon as I removed the last non-ascii from the utf-8 encoded man page, it displayed correctly. Something is wrong in the build of `man`. -- Pierre

Thanks for the pointer. Some notes: - I've checksumed the man page from i3status' source and the one installed in the store: they are identical. - Emacs' "M-x man" only truncates, it does not repeat. - Emacs' "M-x woman" works perfectly! ("woman" is a pure Elisp implementation of "man".)

I'm experiencing an issue where a lot of specific man pages get truncated, such as i3status or nmcli-examples. --8<---cut here---start->8--- [...] This example demonstrates adding a bond master connection and two slaves. The first command adds a

During my first encounter with GuixSD, I could not connect to the Internet for reasons that puzzled me, and I could not find any mention of it in the manual either. At first I assumed I had done something wrong with the setup. I had tried to run wpa_supplicant manually, like I often do on other

guix system delete-generations

2018-05-11 Thread Pierre Neidhardt
For now I delete generations manually, e.g. > sudo rm /var/guix/profiles/system-2-link Wouldn't I do this, the store would endlessly grow over time (e.g. old kernels would not be garbage collected) hence the necessity of it. Necessary, and yet manual: shouldn't we add a command for this?
