Since the switch to Guile 3.0.7 using mini-GMP, we can leave
'scm_install_gmp_memory_functions' to its default value, which is to use
custom memory allocators; there is no interference with users of GMP
such as GnuTLS/Nettle.
* gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c (main) [!SCM_ENABLE_MINI_GMP]:
Leave 'scm_install_gmp_memory_functions' unchanged.
When starting the 'guix' command, this ensures Guile modules are
immediately found instead of being search for in other directories.
This reduces the number of 'stat' calls during startup when
GUILE_LOAD_PATH is set to (almost) that of "env -i $(type -P guix)".
* gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c (load_path)
(load_compiled_path): New variables.
(inner_main): Restore GUILE_LOAD_PATH and GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH and
set %load-path and %load-compiled-path accordingly.
(main): Save GUILE_LOAD_PATH and GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH and unset them.
Since commit ba48895899, selected UTF-8
locales are bundled. However, because 'guix-command' is itself a Guile
script, users would still see Guile's warning, particularly on foreign
distros:
$ LC_ALL=sdf guix foo
guile: warning: failed to install locale
hint: Consider installing the `glibc-utf8-locales' [...]
User commands would print that warning, but more importantly, each
invocation of 'guix substitute' would print it, even though
'guix-daemon.service' explicitly chooses "en_US.utf8", which is in
'glibc-utf8-locales'. This leads to confusion since users would keep
seeing this message unless/until they realize they also need to install
'glibc-utf8-locales' in root's profile.
This patch gets rid of "guile: warning: ..." for a guix-pulled 'guix'
command.
* guix/self.scm (specification->package): Add "gcc-toolchain".
(quiet-guile): New procedure.
(guix-command): Use it.
* gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c: New file.
* Makefile.am (AUX_FILES): Add it.
