<remyd1>Hi, I am beginning with packaging with guix. How can I specify (syntax) a different source directory for `cmake-build-system` in arguments ?

<remyd1>Here is my manifest which does not work: https://paste.debian.net/1312068/

<remyd1>I think I did not start with the easiest package...

<remyd1>(I already did the "hello-world")

<remyd1>Ok, I added the guix gexp module and the previous error disappeared but it still not work

<remyd1>I need to change "source" directory to "src" directory in cmake

<remyd1>do i need modify-phases ? and how ?

<rekado>if you want to enter a directory after unpacking the source code, use (modify-phases %standard-phases (add-after 'unpack 'chdir (lambda _ (chdir "wherever-you-want"))))

<konradd>hello

<konradd>[2:44:44 PM] <konradd> I'm trying to use it on a HPC cluster... the issue I have is with sssd and openldap. all the users have been defined in openldap, but guix seems without admin intervention just for local users

<konradd>[2:45:21 PM] <konradd> [konrad@frontend ~]$ id konrad

<konradd>[2:45:21 PM] <konradd> uid=10000(konrad) gid=10000(hpc-users) groups=10000(hpc-users)

<konradd>[2:45:21 PM] <konradd> [konrad@frontend ~]$ guix install blabla

<konradd>[2:45:21 PM] <konradd> user with UID 10000 not found

<konradd>[2:45:21 PM] <konradd> guix install: error: while creating directory `/var/guix/profiles/per-user/konrad': Permission denied

<konradd>[2:45:21 PM] <konradd> hint: Please create the `/var/guix/profiles/per-user/konrad' directory, with you as the owner.

<konradd>if I create the /var/guix/profiles/per-user/<username> manually, guix works

<konradd>but there are thousands of users

<konradd>so, is there a way to make guix work directly wirh sssd and openldap?

<konradd>am I the only one?

<remyd1>rekado, thanks
