<mfg[m]>The guix workflow language is meant to define the processes necessary to create specified output files from input files, right? So it is necessary that i know how the output files are acutally called and i cannot for example use a directory as an input?
<mfg[m]>I'm just playing around with the gwl a bit :)
<PurpleSym>I challenged myself to build Python for a jailbroken Kindle PaperWhite 3 (armhf-linux) and it’s not going great. The kernel it is running is ancient (3.0) and thus I’m unable to use a recent glibc with it.
<PurpleSym>I cannot upgrade the kernel, because it’s heavily patched and the eInk display uses a proprietary kernel module.
<PurpleSym>And I cannot get older glibc versions to build either.
<PurpleSym>(cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory)
