Hi all, I have a package defintion that needs to the know the location of ca-certificates.crt at build time. I've resolved similar problems before by patching the location of certs after the unpack stage to match the location of nss-certs (see below).
However, it looks like the actual cert bundle file is not part of nss-certs package: ca-certificates.crt -> /gnu/store/ml3ljnqavqpgsvw2486l5rs11zc0yf16-ca-certificate-bundle/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt ca-certificate-bundle isn't a regular package that I can reference like nss-certs. I can find it defined in the source code here: https://github.com/guix-mirror/guix/blob/0f2a17de06a52ca56c90368e29644036c14abad2/guix/profiles.scm#L1054 If this file only exists in a profile how can I know it's location at build time? Thanks, Phil. Approach taken when the directory is required rather than the bundle: (arguments '(#:phases (modify-phases %standard-phases ;; Patch SSL Certs to use nss-certs location (add-after 'unpack 'patch-certs (lambda* (#:key inputs #:allow-other-keys) (substitute* "app/foo/main.cpp" (("/etc/ssl/certs") ;; by default app runs off Ubuntu location (string-append (assoc-ref inputs "nss-certs") "/etc/ssl/certs")))
