<spiderbit>is there a trick with exwm and gdm... I have a new user have the exwm package as system package, but it just tries to start gets black and kicks me back to gdm <spiderbit>ok found I think the error I wonder if it uses correctly or incorrectly pgtk version or is it a dependency that I have to install or something because the path/file is not there... <RavenJoad>Guix 7cd3f7f2a161b3b62ea2ef397cea5f01c940db77 has 2 rassumfrassum packages (rassumfrassum and python-rassumfrassum). They are identical other than their versions. <RavenJoad>How does this get handled? I assume we need to pick one, but how is this normally resolved? <PuercoPop>Is there any official documentation on how to run zfs in the root partition? <switchy>not that I can see, but it should just get picked up in file-systems? <identity>nutcase: you can add a team-whatever label by requesting review from that team <identity>or, well, the bot should add it sooner or later <nutcase>identity: I can add guix/rust as reviewer, but I can't add the team-rust label. Perhaps I am mixing things up. The team-rust label is for CI? <identity>nutcase: as i said, the bot should add the team-rust label after you request review <nutcase>ok. However, help-wanted is something I can't add? <krisbalintona>Hi all! Does anyone know of the best way to do the equivalent of elisp's `file-name-concat' but in Guile? <sham1>(string-join `(,directory ,components ,here) "/") <krisbalintona>sham1: I see. Seems a bit crude since I have to ensure the slashes of the components are stripped (I'm spoiled by `file-name-concat') but that works <RavenJoad>Guix 7cd3f7f2a161b3b62ea2ef397cea5f01c940db77 has 2 rassumfrassum packages (rassumfrassum and python-rassumfrassum). They are identical other than their versions. <ryanprior>It's failing with: %exception #<&invoke-error program: "go" arguments: ("install" "-ldflags=-s -w" "-trimpath" "github.com/joerdav/xc/cmd/xc") exit-status: 1 term-signal: #f stop-signal: #f> <ryanprior>If I run "guix shell -L. -D xc -- go build ./cmd/xc" it builds with no complaints <ryanprior>Any tips/ideas? I think I perhaps chose the wrong values for import-path and unpack-path. I am relatively unfamiliar with building packages using (source (local-file ...)) <identity>krisbalintona: there is (in-vicinity DIRECTORY FILE); (in-vicinity "~/my-directory" "file") ⇒ "~/my-directory/file" <krisbalintona>identity: Hmm, I notice that it only takes in a directory and file, not an arbitrary number of file path components <ryanprior>krisbalintona: can FILE be a directory? if so, `fold'? <krisbalintona>ryanprior: Oh, I see. Hmm.. I'm new to Guile so that's a useful function to know <ngz>Hello. I’m trying to run "make" from a git worktree (after bootstrap and configure) from within a "guix shell -CPW". Alas, I’m getting a lot of errors related to .texi files, such as "@ref reference to nonexistent node", that make the whole process stop early.. Do you know what I am minning? <ekaitz>did you ./bootstrap and ./configure? <ieure>ekaitz, "I’m trying to run "make" from a git worktree (after bootstrap and configure)..." <ieure>ngz, I've run into the same problem (but without worktrees), the .texi files get wacky. You have to delete them, or `git clean -xdf', or there might be a `make clean-doc' or something. <ekaitz>ngz: sorry mate, I didn't sleep well <ngz>ieure: I couldn’t find the magical Makefile target; I’m going to try git clean -xdf. Thanks <ngz>ekaitz: No problem :) <ngz>But "git clean -xdf" rightfully reminds me "not a git repository". <ieure>I thought worktrees were Git repos? <ngz>it doesn’t look like it <ngz>I’m going to delete and recreate that worktree. That’s ugly but I have no other idea. <ryanprior>worktrees are git repos and git commands work in them. convince yourself by running `git worktree add ../guix-2; cd ../guix-2; git status` <ngz>Then my previous worktree was probably very ill. <ngz>In any case, I deleted it and re-created it. It seems to work so far. <ieure>Yeah, I don't think there'd be any point to worktrees if they weren't repos. <ryanprior>ayyyy I got my xc package working. just took another hour and a half of stewing in anxiety about it <ryanprior>does anybody have an explainer handy of how to send packages using the new AGit workflow QQ <ieure>ryanprior, The manual documents the process. `(guix)Submitting Patches'.
