Hello, I'm wondering if the following is expected:
I'm build the guix binary tarball for i686 & x86_64 (without changing any scheme code) and the whole guix codebase gets recompiled for each of the builds. I'm doing this: ./pre-inst-env make update-guix-package git add gnu/packages/package-management.scm git commit -m NOT_FOR_UPSTREAM \ gnu/packages/package-management.scm SYSTEM=x86_64-linux ./pre-inst-env guix build -s "${SYSTEM}" guix ./pre-inst-env guix pack -s "${SYSTEM}" --localstatedir \ --profile-name=current-guix guix SYSTEM=i686-linux ./pre-inst-env guix build -s "${SYSTEM}" guix ./pre-inst-env guix pack -s "${SYSTEM}" --localstatedir \ --profile-name=current-guix guix I intended to run the: ./pre-inst-env make "guix-binary.${SYSTEM}.tar.xz" afterwards. Are the .scm files recompilations needed ? What for ? And as an additionnal question, are the ./pre-inst-envs needed on all the CLIs above ? I still have a TODO to put everything I gathered about building the binary tarballs in the doc. I also still cannot test on foreign arches, see: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-05/msg00213.html Thanks -- Vincent Legoll
