<zimoun>hi!

<civodul>hey zimoun!

<civodul>i'm looking at the hpc.guix.info post

<zimoun>do you plan to publish the Release on HPC today? does the draft need revamp?

<zimoun>hehe

<zimoun>cool! Tell me if you need my inputs

<civodul>yeah i'm mostly moving paragraphs around :-)

<zimoun>ah we like different taste of wine ;-)

<civodul>i thought a couple of things were under the wrong heading

<civodul>i've pushed changes

<civodul>if that's fine with you, let's publish

<civodul>(few people willl notice anyway because we're locked out of the birdsite currently)

*civodul has a boring meeting in 10mn :-/

<zimoun>push whenever you want. Fine with me. :-)

<zimoun>Enjoy your meeting ;-)

<civodul>pushed!

<civodul>should be online within a few minutes

<zimoun>cool!

<zimoun>thanks!

<zimoun>I will try to drop an email to guix-science if you do not beat me :-)

<civodul>oh sure, go ahead!

<rekado_>still no response from Twitter support BTW :-/

<rekado_>there’s a new typo for the next song: “exploratinon” (in the hpc.guix.info post)

<rekado_>zimoun: when you feel like completing the bioconductor upgrade please let me know

<rekado_>I’d then push my WIP somewhere

<civodul>rekado_: ah ah, we're good at typos

<civodul>fixed!

<zimoun>rekado_: I am right now resuming this since a user here is gently complaining :-)

<rekado_>zimoun: okay, I’ve pushed one big blog of WIP to wip-r

<rekado_>this needs to be reset and distributed to the previous commits that upgrade packages

<rekado_>there’s likely more to be fixed as I got build failures due to missing inputs the last time I tried to build just a handful of packages.

<zimoun>the last commit is e6da7c41cf5baba011a48e1e36b7ad916b69f86c right?

<rekado_>yes

<rekado_>and I suggest resetting that commit first thing

<zimoun>by resetting, you mean split it into several commit, right? I am sorry but I am lost with the fast-forward not-writting history.

<zimoun>Then do I send to guix-patches?

<zimoun>About CI, why “spec:wip-r system:x86_64-linux status:failed” return nothing? I am always confused by the Cuirass UI.

<rekado_>“git reset HEAD^” will undo the last commit but keep the changes.

<zimoun>but once I commit the tweak, somehow the history is rewritten. No?

<rekado_>yes

<zimoun>So I missed the point and the workflow of the previous conversation some days ago. Anyway.

<rekado_>no, sorry, it’s my failure to articulate

<rekado_>what we agreed upon was to not rewrite history for now

<rekado_>lest we lose work due to miscommunication

<rekado_>but at some point before we merge into master we will have to undo my WIP commit

<rekado_>doesn’t really matter if we do this now or later, but I think it’s easier to do it sooner than later

<rekado_>before rewriting the tip of the wip-r branch, though, we should give Roel a heads-up

<zimoun>rekado_: ok. About Cuirass? I have started to locally build the packages I am interested (flow cytometry stuff) and I am fixing stuff. But I cannot all. How to I use Cuirass? I am lost with the UI. Where can I read the failing packages and the raw logs?

<zimoun>rekado_: I am going back to home. I will read back the log from here.

<rekado_>zimoun: at https://ci.guix.gnu.org/jobset/wip-r you see all evaluations, i.e. every attempt to compute build jobs when you pushed a relevant change

<rekado_>at the right you see the corresponding *new* successes, failures, and queued up jobs

<rekado_>AFAIK there’s no overview of successes, failures, and scheduled build jobs *per branch*

<rekado_>I think we can come up with a list of low hanging fruit to make the UI more useful

<rekado_>for example, it would be great if the tables could be filtered without having to craft a query

<rekado_>e.g. this one here: https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/18790?status=failed

<rekado_>let me filter by system, because I don’t care all that much about the i586-gnu failures

<rekado_>and filter by job name because I’d like to see only the r-* packages that have failed
