bug#59331: sbcl currently fails to build on aarch64
...or I could just be an idiot. (I somehow thought that pre-inst-env would work without... actually compiling the changed guix repo, if the only changes were in a package definition, which is in retrospect dumb.) The previously attached patch works. Sorry for the confusion. -- Andrew Patterson
bug#59368: icecat does not honor /etc/timezone starting with 102.3.0.
Hi, I've recently found out that icecat wouldn't display time correctly for my local time zone anymore (even when the 'resistFingerprinting' in about:config is disabled, which would have usually resolved the problem). To test, I simply visit the https://everytimezone.com/, which shows your current time. This version from early September 2022 works: --8<---cut here---start->8--- /gnu/store/bzpyas70s9j95dqad00vafks5icg51dm-icecat-91.13.0-guix0-preview1/bin/icecat --8<---cut here---end--->8--- While this one from the end of September 2022 doesn't --8<---cut here---start->8--- /gnu/store/bzpyas70s9j95dqad00vafks5icg51dm-icecat-91.13.0-guix0-preview1/bin/icecat --8<---cut here---end--->8--- As a workaround, you can set your timezone explicitly (after ensuring there are no longer running icecat processes) like so: --8<---cut here---start->8--- TZ=America/Montreal icecat --8<---cut here---end--->8--- -- Thanks, Maxim
bug#59331: sbcl currently fails to build on aarch64
I contacted upstream (https://bugs.launchpad.net/sbcl/+bug/1996942); they've committed a fix and sent me a patch. I tried to make a patch to guix that would fix it, but the patch apparently isn't being applied just by adding it to the patches field of the origin and I'm not sure why. My current effort is attached. >From 29d58ab55a3c6d2e626274c6a9f2ab8cfcc57d06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Patterson Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 21:53:01 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] gnu: sbcl: Fix build on aarch64 sbcl 2.2.10 currently doesn't build on aarch64.

bug#59364: gnome clocks does not start due to missing libGLES.so
This is the exact error: Couldn't open libGLESv2.so.2: libGLESv2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (Yes, a clock application not starting because it needs OpenGL is... pretty weird indeed.)

bug#59361: linux-libre 6 breaks OpenGL on nouveau driver
Hi, When booting my Guix System with linux-libre 6.0.8, nouveau silently fails to render OpenGL. It includes symptoms such as: 1. Getting stuck on the GDM screen, which makes use of OpenGL 2. Not being able to use Qt5 or Qt6 applications, which renders via OpenGL. 3. the 'glxgears' program from mesa-utils displays frozen gears (not turning) My graphic card is an old nvidia 8800 GTS with 640 MiB of video RAM. Workaround: Adding the '(kernel linux-libre-5.15)' to my OS definition fixes it. -- Thanks, Maxim
bug#59359: Acknowledgement (Qt applications not usable when started in LightDM gtk-greeter)
tag 59359 +notabug thanks Hello, it turns out to be something else entirely: OpenGL stopped working for my graphic card (nvidia 8800 GTS) when using nouveau from the latest linux-libre 6.0.X. It works when using linux-libre 5.15.X. Closing. -- Thanks, Maxim
bug#59359: Qt applications not usable when started in LightDM gtk-greeter
Hello, I need to investigate this more, but currently starting Qt applications such as Jami and Linphone in a session started via the LightDM + lightdm-gtk-greeter (the default) greeter can't display properly (the UI appears but cannot be used -- switching windows and returning to it it doesn't redraw at all). To be investigated. -- Thanks, Maxim

Having fonts installed to arbitrary profiles usable by the system? If so, I think that's out of scope. Note that installing fonts to a profile where XDG_DATA_DIRS is set should now be discoverable by fontconfig. I'm closing the issue, but feel free to reopen it if I missed something. -- Thanks, Maxim
