The tarball was modified in-place to fix ‘incorrect line endings’[0].
Unfortunately, it does more, such as re-bootstrapping with autotools
1.16.2 instead of the previous 1.16.1.
A basic visual inspection of the differences did not find anything out
of order.
[0]: https://github.com/libsndfile/libsndfile/releases/tag/v1.0.30
* gnu/packages/pulseaudio.scm (libsndfile)[source]: Update hash.
* gnu/packages/patches/sunxi-tools-remove-sys-io.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/admin.scm (sunxi-tools-source): Add it.
This matches up with changes in the Guix Data Service to not use the
normalized codeset.
* gnu/services/guix.scm (guix-data-service-shepherd-services): Change the
LC_ALL codeset to UTF-8.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43773>.
The computed normalized load was previously obtained by dividing the load
average as found in /proc/loadavg by the number of parallel builds defined for
a build machine.
This normalized load didn't allow to compare machines with different number of
cores, as the load average reported by /proc/loadavg can be as high as the
number of cores; thus comparing that value to a fixed threshold of 2.0 would
mean machines with multiple cores were more likely to be flagged as overloaded
compared to single core machines.
This can be fixed by normalizing using the available number of cores instead
of the number of parallel jobs.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (<build-machine>)[overload-threshold]: New field.
(node-load): Modify to return a normalized load value between 0 and 1, taking
into account the number of cores available.
(normalized-load): Remove procedure.
(report-load): New procedure.
(choose-build-machine): Adjust to use the modified 'node-load' and the new
'report-load' and 'build-machine-overload-threshold' procedures.
(check-machine-status): Adjust.
* doc/guix.texi (Daemon Offload Setup): Document the offload scheduler and the
new 'overload-threshold' field.
Suggested by Emmanuel Agullo.
* doc/contributing.texi (Running Guix Before It Is Installed): Move the
"./pre-inst-env guix-daemon" snippet at the bottom. Make it clear that
it's necessary only when hacking on guix-daemon or when guix-daemon is
not already running.
* doc/guix.texi (Using the Configuration System): In example, set
'substitute-urls' rather than 'use-substitutes?', and set 'auto-login'
for 'mingetty-configuration'.
(Service Types and Services): In example, show 'extra-options' rather
than 'use-substitutes?'.
Gmsh bundles METIS 5 released with Apache License 2.0 since upstream commit
eaff7f6477fe876991615cfa4b5832bd5f12994b. Instead, Gmsh is linked with the
package 'metis'.
* gnu/packages/maths.scm (gmsh): Update to 4.6.0.
(propagated-inputs): Replace 'opencascade-oce' by 'opencascade-occt', add
'metis'.
