<apteryx>rekado_: re the lack of delayed evaluation for snippets; I tried to work around this by making the snippet field of the <origin> record thunked, as was suggested to you by civodul in 2016 :-), but that didn't help (now it hangs in a loop without printing anything). <apteryx>in the manual we document that the snippet can be a gexp, but it doesn't seem to get any use in the source code and breaks when trying to use it -- it'd be nice to have that fixed. <apteryx>rekado_: also, why mustn't there be any store reference in the source code? Patching the likes of /bin/sh and /bin/pwd seems a nice thing to have in a snippet, otherwise when exploring a manual build in a guix environment phases must be manually ran, which is inconvenient.. <apteryx>i.e., to me the source retrievable by 'guix build --source' shoud build in a guix environment, ideally. <pkill9>nckx: nice thanks, what I want is to get all those desktop files to use for a launcher that will launch one of them and using guix's magic, download it and run it for you <nckx>pkill9: So you want the actual files themselves? <nckx>(The insanely slow part is the readdir(), that list took an hour to generate, actually tarring up the files in that list should be ‘faster’...) <pkill9>yea nckx, stored like <package>/<.desktop-file>, or maybe <store-path>/share/applications/<.desktop-file>, preferably the former, but probably a lot simple to do the latter <pkill9>no parsing on the latter one i assume <nckx>Yeah, I'll let you do the transformation 🙂 <pkill9>yea that's no problem, thanks for donating your effort <nckx>pkill9: Wow... knowing someone's name truly is power. tar -cT <that list> took less than 2 minutes! 😳 <nckx>Tarball is in same directory. <nckx>PotentialUser-15: Welcome!

I was able to get Guix to boot after I configured it to update with the newest linux-libre 5.4 kernel (5.4.60).

I wonder what was really going wrong... <apteryx>sneek later tell butterypancake nckx: re Debbugs usertags, the reason the GNU Debbugs instance accepts 'emacs' and not 'guix' is because "sub is_valid_user in /usr/share/perl5/Debbugs/User.pm is locally patched to not insist that "user" be an email. Instead it requires at least 5 characters, ie "emacs" is ok but "guix" is not.

I'm kinda guessing here someone as might now if that's a possibility or not. <str1ngs>fnstudio: depending how much you pull I find guix gc -d 1m or 2m is pretty good for keeping recent things only. <str1ngs>and guix is not fat, it's just big boned :) <nckx>I've always run all my systems with --gc-keep-outputs=yes & --gc-keep-derivations=yes.

There is --do-not-update=REGEX option. <msavoritias[m]1><nckx "I've always run all my systems w"> Where do you add these commands? In update? <nckx>No, to the daemon command line. On Guix System that means the (service guix-service-type (guix-configuration (extra-options ...))) list. <fnstudio>`guix gc --help` says `-d` is for deleting "profile generations matching PATTERN"; could it be worth to add mention of "duration"? is `-d` for duration in the first place? <fnstudio>ah no, it must be for `--delete-generations`... of course... <fnstudio>then i suppose it must be clear (to someone who's familiar with other commands) that the pattern matching mechanism includes things such as `2m` *guix-vits <holywar>2m ---> 2 minutes :D</holywar> *str1ngs smites guix-vits with the vengeful wrath of Emacs! <fnstudio>guix-vits str1ngs: ah interesting, the html page does mention `duration` instead of `PATTERN` <fnstudio>might it be worth to have that reflected in `guix gc --help`? <str1ngs>fnstudio: possible, also the "html" is the manual so info guix would have this information. ***terpri__ is now known as terpri
