* gnu/packages/build-tools.scm (gn)[native-inputs]: Change from PYTHON-2 to
PYTHON-WRAPPER.
[arguments]: Remove trailing #t's and make some cosmetic changes.
Syntax-highlighted monospace is overrated. Nothing like glancing at
Webmail to spot obvious bugs.
* gnu/packages/file-systems.scm (xfstests)[arguments]: Omit /usr from /bin/time.
* gnu/packages/compression.scm (snappy): Update to 1.1.9.
[source]: Add another patch.
[arguments]: Add new #:configure-flags and an
'unpack-third_party-subprojects phase.
[native-inputs]: Add the sources for benchmark and googletests.
* gnu/packages/patches/snappy-add-inline-for-GCC.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
Possibly fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/48045>.
Reported by Bone Baboon <bone.baboon@disroot.org>.
* guix/scripts/challenge.scm (call-with-nar): Rename second value
returned by 'http-fetch' to match reality. Change second argument to
'progress-reporter/file'.
Also replace the obsolete 'guix system vm-image' command mention by the 'guix
system image'.
* doc/guix.texi (Running Guix in a VM): Remove VM image decompression
instruction.
<guix system vm-image>: Replace by 'guix system image'.
This allows computing a manifest for a specific system. Previously this was
possible, but only through changing %current-system, which caused the
derivation to be computed using that system as well (so computing a derivation
for aarch64-linux on x86_64-linux would require running aarch64-linux code).
This new argument adds the possibility of computing derivations for non-native
systems, without having to run non-native code.
I'm looking at this as it will enable the Guix Data Service to compute channel
instance derivations without relying on QEMU emulation for non-native
systems (it should be faster as well).
* guix/channels.scm (build-from-source): Add #:system argument and pass to
build.
(build-channel-instance): Add system argument and pass to build-from-source.
(channel-instance-derivations): Add #:system argument and pass to
build-channel-instance, also rename system to current-system-value.
(channel-instances->manifest): Add #:system argument and pass to
channel-instance-derivations.
* gnu/packages/syndication.scm (giara): New variable.
* gnu/packages/patches/giara-fix-login.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/emacs-xyz.scm (emacs-rime):[arguments]: Use #:include rather
than #:phases to add librime-emacs.so.
