* gnu/packages/base.scm (canonical-package): New procedure.
* gnu/system.scm (%base-packages): Pass BASH, COREUTILS, FINDUTILS,
GREP, and SED through 'canonical-package'.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (coreutils)[arguments] <patch-shell-references>:
Leave src/split.c unpatched. Set $SHELL. Use .../bin/sh and not
.../bin/bash in tests.
This fixes a top-level circular dependency between linux.scm and
base.scm introduced in 2e92375.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc-final): Remove call to
'package-with-restricted-references', and use an 'arguments' field
instead.
This fixes a bug whereby the bootstrap-glibc headers could be picked up
when building libc.so, which could be noticed by the fact that the
.debug files contained references to bootstrap-glibc.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc-final-with-bootstrap-bash)[arguments]:
Add 'pre-configure' phase.
[inputs]: Remove 'alist-delete' call.
This fixes a bug whereby Findutils' 'updatedb' script would retain a
reference to the bootstrap binaries ('sort', etc.)
* gnu/packages/base.scm (coreutils-final, %boot5-inputs): New variables.
(%final-inputs): Use them.
* gnu/packages/multiprecision.scm (gmp): Upgrade to 6.0.0a.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (gcc-boot0): Modify symbolic link to point to
gmp-6.0.0 instead of the non-existing gmp-6.0.0a.
* gnu/packages/patches/coreutils-skip-nohup.patch: patch taken from the git
repository of coreutils, that makes sure tests/misc/nohup.sh does not fail
when /dev/tty does not exist.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (coreutils): use it.
* gnu-system.am (dist_patch_DATA): add it.
The previous commit has made (guix build utils) imported by default, so
no need to specify it.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc)[source]: Remove 'modules' and
'imported-modules' fields.
* gnu/packages/lsh.scm (lsh)[source]: Likewise.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc): Add 'native-inputs' field.
(perl-boot0): New variable.
(linux-libre-headers-boot0): Use it.
(texinfo-boot0): New variable.
(glibc-final-with-bootstrap-bash): Add 'native-inputs' field.
Reported by John Darrington <john@darrington.wattle.id.au>.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (tzdata): Use the 'source' keyword argument in
phases rather than the "source" input. This fixes cross-compilation.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc): Add 'snippet' to set use_ldconfig=no.
Remove "glibc-no-ld-so-cache.patch"; that patch would still build
'ldconfig', and ld.so would still contain ld.so.cache-related code,
and would look for info in /etc/etc/ld.so.cache (sic).
* gnu/packages/patches/glibc-no-ld-so-cache.patch: Remove.
* gnu-system.am (dist_patch_DATA): Adjust accordingly.
* build-aux/download.scm (file-name->uri): Update URL to /20131110.
* gnu-system.am (nodist_bootstrap_x86_64_linux_DATA,
nodist_bootstrap_i686_linux_DATA): Change base name to
'guile-2.0.9.tar.xz'.
(gnu/packages/bootstrap/x86_64-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz,
gnu/packages/bootstrap/i686-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz): New targets.
(gnu/packages/bootstrap/x86_64-linux/guile-2.0.7.tar.xz,
gnu/packages/bootstrap/i686-linux/guile-2.0.7.tar.xz): Remove.
(gnu/packages/bootstrap/mips64el-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz): Update
hash.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (gcc-boot0): Base upon GCC-4.8. Enable C++, and
add a few --disable flags. Remove MPFR workaround.
(cross-gcc-wrapper): Base upon GCC-4.8. Wrap both 'gcc' and 'g++'.
(libstdc++): New variable.
(gcc-final): Add it as an input; pass corresponding -I and -L flags.
* gnu/packages/bootstrap.scm (%bootstrap-guile): Always use
"guile-2.0.9.tar.xz.
(%bootstrap-coreutils&co): Update hashes.
(%bootstrap-binutils): Update URL and hashes.
(%bootstrap-glibc): Likewise.
(%bootstrap-gcc): Likewise.
* gnu/packages/gcc.scm (gcc-4.7): Add LDFLAGS.
Add --disable-libstdcxx-pch.
Modify the GNU_USER*_SPEC macros from gnu-user*.h instead of the raw
_SPEC macros.
