Hi~ I'm new to guix.
Could anyone with more Guix packaging experience point me in the right direction? I'm particularly confused about why cargo isn't being found and whether I'm correctly using the cargo-build-system phases within a CMake-based package. *I'm trying to create a Guix package definition (.scm file) for Kime*, a Korean input method framework written in Rust (GitHub: https://github.com/Riey/kime). *My goal is to replicate the build process of their provided scripts/build.sh -ar script within a Guix package.* However, I'm running into a couple of issues when I try to build the package using guix package -f kime.scm. *Problem 1: "In execvp of cargo: No such file or directory"* I'm getting this error during the cargo-build phase. It seems like cargo isn't being found in the build environment, even though I've included rust and rust-toolchain in native-inputs. *Problem 2: Potential issue with cargo configure phase (if uncommented)* In my kime.scm, I initially tried to explicitly include a configure phase for Cargo (based on my understanding of how build systems work), but when I uncommented the (assoc-ref cargo:%standard-phases 'configure) part in my phases definition, I encountered another error (unfortunately, I didn't save the exact error message for this one, but I can reproduce it if needed). [If you can reproduce the error, it's highly recommended to include it here!] ============ Context & Relevant Logs: ------- Here is current kime.scm (use-modules (guix) (guix packages) (guix git-download) (guix build-system cmake) (guix build-system cargo) (guix build utils) (guix gexp) (gnu packages rust) (gnu packages gcc) (gnu packages llvm) (gnu packages crates-io) (gnu packages crates-gtk) (gnu packages freedesktop) (gnu packages pkg-config) (gnu packages fontutils) (gnu packages glib) (gnu packages gtk) (gnu packages qt) (gnu packages xorg) ((guix licenses) #:prefix license:) ) (define kime (package (name "kime") (version "v3.1.1") (source (origin (method git-fetch) (uri (git-reference (url "https://github.com/Riey/kime.git";) (commit "632875f541d8373c90403e74f991d3f5beaeba94"))) (file-name (git-file-name name version)) (sha256 (base32 "17nk74k3ydlc45djd4p30ws2ybnilskkxvnvha1n4lq9lh9g8idi")))) (build-system cmake-build-system) (arguments (list #:build-type "Release" #:imported-modules (append %cargo-build-system-modules ; Import cargo modules %cmake-build-system-modules) ; Import cmake modules #:modules `(((guix build cargo-build-system) #:prefix cargo:) ; Instantiate cargo build system with prefix 'cargo:' ,@%cmake-build-system-modules) ; Include cmake modules #:configure-flags #~'( "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release" ; Explicitly state Release build type, though default in build-options "-DUSE_SYSTEM_ENGINE=OFF" ; Explicitly set to default OFF "-DENABLE_GTK3=ON" "-DENABLE_GTK4=ON" "-DENABLE_QT5=ON" "-DENABLE_QT6=ON") ; `(#:cargo-inputs ; Pass cargo-inputs here to configure phase ; (("rust-glib", rust-glib-0.18) ; ("rust-libc", rust-libc-0.2))) #:phases #~(modify-phases %standard-phases (add-before 'configure 'cargo-build (lambda* (#:key inputs #:allow-other-keys) ; ((assoc-ref cargo:%standard-phases 'unpack-rust-crates) ; #:inputs inputs ; #:vendor-dir "guix-vendor") ; ((assoc-ref cargo:%standard-phases 'configure) ; #:inputs inputs) ; ((assoc-ref cargo:%standard-phases 'patch-cargo-checksums)) ((assoc-ref cargo:%standard-phases 'build)) ))))) (inputs (list dbus fontconfig glib gtk qtbase qttools clang-runtime cairo xorg-server xcb-util xcb-proto wayland wayland-protocols rust )) (native-inputs (list clang-toolchain pkg-config llvm)) ;;(propagated-inputs (list cargo)) (license license:gpl3) (home-page "https://github.com/Riey/kime";) (synopsis "kime is an input method with gtk3 gtk4 qt5 qt6 xim wayland support") (description "kime is an input method framework written in rust, supporting gtk3, gtk4, qt5, qt6, xim, and wayland.") )) kime -------- Here's a snippet from the successful build log when running the original scripts/build.sh -ar script directly: ....skip... cargo build --release -pkime-engine-capi -pkime-check -pkime-indicator -pkime-candidate-window -pkime-xim -pkime-wayland -pkime Finished release profile [optimized] target(s) in 0.23s cp ./target/release/libkime_engine.so /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp ./target/release/kime-check /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp ./target/release/kime-candidate-window /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp ./target/release/kime-indicator /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp ./target/release/kime-xim /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp ./target/release/kime-wayland /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp ./target/release/kime /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp src/engine/cffi/kime_engine.h /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp src/engine/cffi/kime_engine.hpp /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp docs/CHANGELOG.md /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp LICENSE /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp /home/orka/src/kime/build/out cp -R res/default_config.yaml res/icons res/kime.desktop res/kime-xdg-autostart /home/orka/src/kime/build/out mkdir -pv build/cmake echo Build gtk qt immodules...
