bug#70444: Broken Emoticons in Browsers

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

for more than a month now many emoticons are broken in my browsers.

An example is https://www.draketo.de/wissen/klimalinks.html
I see ⚠, but I cannot see  (though copying it into an Emacs buffer
shows the icon).

Also Flags like  and  are broken.

I have a huge number of fonts installed (list at the end), so this
should actually work.

I attached a screenshot from icecat which shows the problem;
ungoogled-chromium has it, too. Firefox installed via flatpak works,
though (second attached image).



Best wishes,
Arne

bug#65926: package openjdk 20.0.2 and release-candidate 21+35 and add helpers for that

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

attached are patches to add helpers and package openjdk 20.0.2 and
21+35.

The 21+35 package skips the validation of the runpath, because that
fails. I don’t know why.

Hi,


I’m skipping a lot to get only to the most important points (save time
for us all).

So something was missing there that let the change to the ocaml package
slip through this january. This should have raised red flags somewhere.

Do we have documentation on the process? (link?)

This means with the current functionality that the manifest is broken at
that point. Nothing can be updated anymore. I’ve been in that situation
a few times already with broken packages and it caused weeks of not
being able to update because I didn’t have the time to investigate.

That’s why I wrote the following:

> If we had a way to have placeholder packages (similar to the renamings)
> that emit warnings for missing packages but do not break the build, that

This would cause us to collect a slowly growing list of removed packages
that will be ignored (except for the warning) in manifests.

That way we would avoid breaking the setup when removing a package.


(define-public-removed the-package-variable
  (removed-package
(name "the-package-name")
(reason-for-removal "upstream stopped working a decade ago")))


The key difference between your scenario "some package is broken and I
cannot install it" and my scenario "I have a package in my manifest that
gets removed, breaking my manifest" is that mine is much more painful
because an update breaks changing a working system.

In my scenario I don’t just see "oh, this doesn’t work, let’s choose
another way", but a way I’ve been using and building on gets broken.

Also I experienced that at least twice already. That I had to go and
investigate before I could add a package to my manifest, because the
manifest was broken by a removed package. In at least one instance I had
not been able to update for several weeks before that and didn’t have
time and energy to investigate.

Once I had missed that my system had not updated in months, because I
did reconfigure in a cron job and a removed package had broken
/etc/config.scm


And we actually select for such breakage, because I cannot see locally
whether a package failed on CI, so while I can see (and have to fix)
packages that fail locally, on-CI-failures are invisible.


So instead of removing a package, I think the first step in a process
should be to warn everyone with that package in the manifest that it’s
broken on CI ⇒ add a warning to that package, like the rename warnings.

If no one takes it up for a few months, replace it with a
removed-package placeholder that warns to clean up the manifest. And
just keep that placeholder in place to avoid breaking manifests.


Best wishes,
Arne

This is a good example, but not for removing broken packages. For
perl6-xml-writer removing the package would keep breakage in Guix.

I just checked the build, and this looks like a Guix packaging error
that breaks the tests due to a change to some unrelated package:
/gnu/store/ap404x14l604wm0gvaj439ga2vjzwnl7-perl6-tap-harness-0.0.7/bin/prove6: 
/gnu/store/ap404x14l604wm0gvaj439ga2vjzwnl7-perl6-tap-harness-0.0.7/bin/.prove6-real:
 perl6: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Disabling the tests makes the package build and work.

So here, removing a package would start at the wrong place: some change
between 2021-02-01 and 2021-04-30 broke the perl6-tap-harness and we did
not detect that.

This is a problem that would get hidden by removing broken packages.

The problem is that we (large inclusive we that stands for all users of
Guix) did not track down this problem that causes the build to fail.

From this I see two distinct cases:

- packages broken upstream
- packages broken by changes in Guix

If a package is broken upstream and not going to get fixed and this
requires regular patching in Guix, I agree that we have to remove it at
some point.

If however a change in Guix breaks packages, that change should get
rolled back / reverted and fixed, so it does not break the packages.

8 |   ocaml-migrate-parsetree
  ^^^
Error: Library "ocaml-migrate-parsetree" not found.

This likely means that a change in the inherited package removed the
input, but the breakage wasn’t detected.

And that’s actually what happened in
386ad7d8d14dee2103927d3f3609acc63373156a
Fri Jan 13 10:54:36 2023 +

This commit broke ocaml4.07-ppxlib by cleaning up the inputs of
ocaml-ppxlib (not naming names, this is not about shaming but about
detecting the deeper problem).

It should have been rejected (somehow) by CI. The change it would have
required is this:

So for both the cases you named for removal, such a removal would have
caused us to miss actual problems in our process.

This does not mean that there will never be a case in which a package
has to be removed, but given that both cases you showed are likely
self-induced breakage due to changes that should have been rejected as
breaking seemingly unrelated packages, it rather looks like the
situation where removing the package is the right way forward is the
exceptional case.

The norm is that our CI should have detected a problem in the commit
causing the breakage.
(this is reasoning from only two datapoints, so take it with a grain of
salt …)

Can we automatically rebuild all inheriting packages when a package gets
changed?

Please don’t remove packages that are broken on the CI. I often had a
case where no substitute was available but the package built just fine
locally. This is not a perfect situation (nicer would be to track why it
doesn’t come from CI — sometimes it’s just a resource problem on the
CI), but if you removed a package I use that would break all updates for
me.

I had that in the past. It’s not a nice situation, because it not only
break that one package but also prevents getting security updates until
you find time to inspect what exactly is broken.

And if you depend on that package, stuff stops working. Example: The
changes to the Texlive packages currently break the PDF export of many
pages for me — I have not found the deeper reason yet. And I usually
cannot investigate such problems right-away, because I can’t just drop
everything for hobby automation that should just keep working.

If a change in packages breaks my manifest, that is extremely painful.

Arne

bug#65614: cgroups increase to 65555 preventing docker to start

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

when I try to start a docker container, I get the erro

docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create shim task: OCI
runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container
process: unable to apply cgroup configuration: mkdir
/sys/fs/cgroup/docker/dac0a619a2d6f980095c74a6a2b82a31bbfef721d5bc80fe9a9fb94fe48cfa37:
no space left on device: unknown.

Checking the number of cgroups shows that it’s at the limit (if I read
it right, no guarantees for that, cgroups isn’t my strong side), but
this is after only a few days of uptime:

$ find /sys/fs/cgroup/ -type d | wc -l

Is Guix using cgroups for building?
Is something broken in Guix or do I have to hunt elsewhere for fixes?

Other people seem to have similar problems, but only after massive
docker usage:

If you want to try this out quickly, you could use code from the
topological sorting SRFI I’m slowly finalizing:

https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-234/srfi-234.html

For usage see:

Code: 
https://github.com/scheme-requests-for-implementation/srfi-234/blob/main/srfi/234-impl.scm

edgelist->graph should do the conversion from inputs per package to the
input format.

same scheduler settings in a zen4 benchmark article
https://www.phoronix.com/review/zen4-clear-linux/2

This is not guaranteed to help, but the article indicates possible
gains for these packages of 5-10%.

bug#62395: [PATCH] Tunable guile@3.0.9t package

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,


The attached patch adds a guile@3.0.9t package that enables CPU
architecture tuning for Guile and for a specialized libgc.

It creates new packages to avoid causing rebuilds.

* gnu/packages/guile.scm (guile-3.0-latest/tunable): new derived package

2.39.2



The results of a benchmark are still not fully conclusive: regular Guile
seems to be slightly slower in the Geometric mean of all tests, but
there are benchmarks where a tuned Guile is slower.

Note that this is tuning for znver3 while I actually have znver4, but
support for the correct compile-target will only arrive with GCC 13.


To replicate the benchmarks:

echo guix pull --disable-authentication --allow-downgrades -u … # get the new 
packages

guix shell mercurial -- hg clone https://hg.sr.ht/~arnebab/wisp
guix shell git -- git clone https://github.com/ecraven/r7rs-benchmarks 
cd r7rs-benchmarks

for N in {1..3}; do
  guix shell --tune guile@3.0.9t -- ./bench guile all && mv 
results.Guile{,-tuned${N}}
  guix shell guile@3.0.9 -- ./bench guile all && mv results.Guile{,-regular${N}}
  sed -i 's/\+guile/+guiletuned/' results.Guile-tuned${N}
  sed -i 's/\+guile/+guileregular/' results.Guile-regular${N}
done
grep -a -h '+!CSVLINE' results.Guile-{regular,tuned}* | sed 's/+!CSVLINE!+//' > 
all.csv
guix shell guile-wisp guile -- ../wisp/examples/evaluate-r7rs-benchmark.w 
~/eigenes/Programme/r7rs-benchmarks/all.csv guiletuned
guix shell guile-wisp guile -- ../wisp/examples/evaluate-r7rs-benchmark.w 
~/eigenes/Programme/r7rs-benchmarks/all.csv guileregular


My results with N in {1..2}, the Geometric mean:

Guile tuned has a slowdown of 1.03512801239189
Guile regular has a slowdown of 1.0504373210343294

This suggests that the regular Guile is 1.48% slower than tuned Guile.

Since I have no errorbars, I cannot say whether this is significant.


=== Guiletuned slowdown ===

Changes since 1.0.7:

wisp 1.0.11 (2023-03-20):
- increase resilience of make check for multi-job make in Guix

wisp 1.0.10 (2023-02-16):
- only extend the reader for ## while reading wisp. Thanks to Maxime
  Devos for help to use fluids!

wisp 1.0.9 (2023-02-16):
- remove limitation of the number of prefix underscores (_). Thanks to
  Maxime Devos for a much cleaner algorithm!
- only set *port* encoding to UTF-8, do not change encoding for the
  application. Thanks to Maxime Devos!

wisp 1.0.8 (2022-12-09):
- wisp2lisp can now process stdin when called with - as filename.
  And it has help output.

Best wishes,
Arne

Version 18 is even better :-)

bug#62177: [PATCH] [WIP] update node to version 16

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,


this is an initial stab at getting node to version 16.

It is far from perfect, but I hope it gives someone a good starting
point to move forward. The llhttp bootstrap fixes are currently
commented out — I’m not sure what these should be doing and how they
interact with node — so this cannot be merged as is.

bug#62176: [PATCH] Update Mesa to 22.2

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

the attached patch updates mesa to version 22.

The new Mesa package is mostly taken from core-updates, then I adapted
only the strictly required dependencies.

Many thanks to theh person who wrote the comment that mesa-opencl also
needs clang updated!

bug#61364: core-updates branch needed multiple hacks to work

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

I updated my Guix system to the core-updates branch because I need Mesa
22 and Linux 6 for my new CPU+graphics card.

To get that to work required multiple hacks — mostly ignoring tests
around missing OSErrors on sockets.

I attached the patches I required in the hopes that they can help get
the core-updates branch into the condition needed to release from it.

There’s no cycle, but gst-plugins-base-gl cannot be installed without
mesa and mesa is large.

What’s the right way to deal with this, then? I need ffmpeg at as
propagated-input, but I do not want to create a conflict with a manifest
that just defines "ffmpeg".

You’re right — thank you!

The second argument is #:optional. But yes, it should be input-folder —
that was the whole point of the first let.

Thank you!

bug#57749: [patch] maven: fix build with java-slf4j-simple-source expanded

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

Maven failed to build for me, because java-slf4j-simple-source is no
longer a tarball, but an expanded directory of files.

Copying the files from Scheme makes it build. A patch is attached.

the following patch provides t for ruby. I tested it, but I had to
disable the tests for quite a few of the packaged gems.

It would be great to have that in Guix by default.

bug#53883: strange conflicts with guix package -m manifest

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hello Guix,

I see strange conflicts when trying to update packages via manifest:

guix package: error: profile contains conflicting entries for python-cffi
guix package: error:   first entry: python-cffi@1.15.0 
/gnu/store/fnkn12qv3bw7z3jhdgp2drd0nnn0p433-python-cffi-1.15.0

guix package: error:... propagated from python-requests-toolbelt@0.9.1
guix package: error:... propagated from python-twine@1.15.0


As you can see, both packages are python-twine, and they have
conflicting dependencies.

I attached both my manifest and my channels file.

To reproduce:


LANG=C guix package -kK --fallback -m ~/fluss-guix.manifest

It started happening a few weeks ago.

I found the cause now, though: I had

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/.guix-profile/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

in my .profile, because that was once needed to get some non-guix-builds
working. Removing that and updating the core system (guix system
reconfigure …) and rebooting resolved the issue.

I still have some breakage left, though: On starting icecat, I see

bug#53344: Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-call-libc-early-init.c: 37: _dl_call_libc_early_init: Assertion `sym != NULL' failed!

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

when I call guix, I get the error

Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-call-libc-early-init.c: 37:
_dl_call_libc_early_init: Assertion `sym != NULL' failed!

`which guix` gives

/home/USER/.config/guix/current/bin/guix

I have the workaround to install guix for the user with

/var/guix/profiles/system-388-link/profile/bin/guix install guix # and all 
further packages it needed to build

and now `which guix` gives

/home/USER/.guix-profile/bin/guix

and guix works, but that does not look like a good solution.

Best wishes,
Arne

Hi,

Julien Lepiller  writes:

> Hi, I think you fixed openjdk16 instead of openjdk17, this makes the

I didn’t fix openjdk16, it’s just the change detection in git that makes
it look like that because there are unchanged lines in-between.

I wish I could make that better, but git just doesn’t understand the
semantics of the code, so it does not recognize the unchanged end of the
openjdk16 block and instead things that my insertion of openjdk17 is a
modification of the end of openjdk16 plus insertion of the start of
openjdk17.

It just needs one person. Also see this weeks newsletter from Cory
Doctorov on the lawsuit against Vizio. It might soon only take one user.

Best get licensing problems fixed sooner than later. GPLv2-only is a
problem quickly getting closer.

bug#48722: [PATCH] python-hg-evolve update to 10.3.1 for compatibility with new hg

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

The current evolve extension in Guix does not work with current hg
anymore. To reproduce:

$ echo '[extensions]
evolve=
' >> ~/.hgrc
$ guix install python-hg-evolve
$ hg 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File 
"/gnu/store/2j3qrrdbnbw9x6jm00z3clc6pk4ijcz2-mercurial-5.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mercurial/extensions.py",

knownexts[ext] = e.cmdtable
AttributeError: module 'hgext.strip' has no attribute 'cmdtable'
*** failed to set up extension evolve: module 'hgext.strip' has no attribute

The included patch updates python-hg-evolve to 10.3.1 which fixes the problem.

Be careful with HSTS, it can make the site inaccessible if you lose
access to a certificate and have to replace it. And yes, that can happen
easily, and you then won’t have a way to inform visitors why they cannot
access the site. If you enable it, make absolutely sure that the max-age
is short enough.

Thank you!

I added one change last week to support mobile browsers which answer
"maybe" to the query `mediaTag.canPlayType('audio/x-mpegurl')` (yes,
seriously, and it is in the spec :-) ).

Also I backported the not freenet specific changes:
- prefetch the next three tracks as blob and keep at most 10 tracks
  cached to allow for fast track skipping (and now actually release the
  memory)
- adjustments to allow for inlining and survive the non-utf8-encoding.
- continue automatically when fetch succeeded if playback was stopped
  because it reached the end (but not if paused).
- minimal mouseover for the back and forward arrows.

When a https-m3u-list refers to a http-file, it falls back from fetching
blobs to rewriting the src-part of the tag (because blobs cannot be
fetched from a less secure resource).

This is how it looks: https://www.draketo.de/software/m3u-player.html

The changes are included in https://www.draketo.de/software/m3u-player.js

You can use it like this:

+Usage: $PROGNAME [OPTION ...] COMMAND

Dear Guix hackers,

One of my main tools for running graphical programs as part of my build
pipelines is xvfb-run. Since it is not packaged in Guix, I’ve resorted
to manual workarounds, but these have annoying drawbacks:

Xvfb :3 -screen 0 1024x768x16 & time DISPLAY=:3 HOME=/path/to/project/.emacs.d 
emacs …

I now get errors about the maximum number of clients reached, because
the Xvfb does not get reaped after the build:
Maximum number of clients reached
Therefore I would ask whether it would be possible to package xvfb-run.
It is provided as part of the patches of the xorg-package in Debian:

bug#46711: Chromium shortcuts do not always honor xmodmap changes during runtime

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

When I start Chromium and then set a different keyboard layout with
xmodmap, the tab-level shortcuts like CTRL-w do not honor the different
layout.

In my layout w is mapped on QWERTZ-n, so when I open Chromium and then
switch the keyboard layout, hitting CTRL-w in Chromium causes a new
window to open (as would be expected from CTRL-n).

I have to pkill chromium to get back to sane behavior (and that does not
always work).

Best wishes,
Arne

bug#46532: plantuml in pure environment does not find X11

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Dear Guix hackers,

when installing plantuml in a pure environment, it throws an java.awt.AWTError: 
Can't connect to X11 window server using ':1' as the value of the DISPLAY 
variable.

To reproduce:

$ guix environment --ad-hoc --pure plantuml -- plantumlNo protocol specified
Exception in thread "main" java.awt.AWTError: Can't connect to X11 window 
server using ':1' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

might be missing.

This example is in guix pull, it looks like either a network error or an
error in your local encryption stack.

If other examples are in guix package -u, you can add -k (--keep), then
previous good builds will be kept and won’t have to be rebuilt on the
next try.

However I have been in configurations that for some reasons did not
work. This helped me out of that:

guix pull && guix package -I | cut -f 1,3 | sed 's/\t/:/' | xargs guix install 
-k

If the installer and the configuration examples are changed now, then
the number of people who unknowingly run Guix on an insecure
configuration should not rise.

To nudge them to secure their system, guix system reconfigure could emit
a warning that this is a potential security risk that requires setting
an explicit value (password yes or no) to silence.

>>> Thoughts?

My thoughts are that there is no mitigation for being locked out of a
pre-existing server. Keep in mind that that server might not actually be
accessible in any other way — it might be with a cheap hoster whose
support is practically non-existent, or it might be in a sealed
measurement container that can only be accessed via SSH without
disassembly.

>> We could also do a combination of the above, as a transitional plan:

This sounds like trying to retroactively fixing a problem at the wrong
place: If the installer creates a configuration which prevents
password-authentication, there is no problem for new systems and new
users who need password-authentication will explicitly see in the
config, that they have to change it, otherwise it won’t work. All the
while old systems will keep working.

I do need to access my system via password+ssh from time to time,
because I don’t want to have a key that can access my system on a
presentation-laptop that (due to being moved regularly) is much less
secure than the fixed system. If someone gets access to the laptop and
compromises my keys, they can run much more efficient attacks against
its ssh-keys' password than the attacks people can use to attack ssh via
internet.

Changing a default (an invisible setting) in a way that prevents access
is a serious disruption.

In short: please don’t break running systems on update.

Best wishes,
Arne

bug#43075: Prioritize providing substitutes for security-critical packages with potentially long build times

There are two aspects that make ungoogled-chromium, icecat and
linux-libre special:

- long build time
- security critical

If a user cannot run the newest ungoogled-chromium, icecat, or
linux-libre due to too high build times (so it can for example only be
built on a weekend, but not on a weekday when the computer is only
active for a few hours), then this user is prone to be hit by zero-day
vulnerabilities.

So the minimal criterion would be: Protect users from zero-days.

For ungoogled-chromium, icecat, and linux-libre, two factors match:

- the chance is very high that an update fixes a vulnerability, and
- they take so long to build that many users won’t be able to do it
  right away.

I certainly can’t: I cannot update ungoogled-chromium during work-time
because the compile is so heavy on resources, that it considerably slows
down my work.

Best wishes,
Arne

bug#42595: conflicts in propagated imports must be resolved manually

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

When I get conflicts in propagated imports, I must follow a mechanical
multi-step process to resolve them manually.

A recent example: I wanted to install guile-gi. In the first step I was
told to also update python-pycairo, and in the next steps I had to add,
one by one,


dbus-glib cairo guile-charting libsoup poppler pango

And now I gave up. I’m now here and out of time:

LANG=C guix package -i guile-gi python-pycairo dbus-glib cairo guile-charting 
libsoup poppler pango
The following packages will be upgraded:
   python-pycairo (dependencies or package changed)
   dbus-glib  (dependencies or package changed)
   cairo  (dependencies or package changed)
   guile-charting (dependencies or package changed)
   libsoup(dependencies or package changed)
   poppler(dependencies or package changed)
   pango  (dependencies or package changed)

The following package will be installed:
   guile-gi 0.3.0

guix package: error: profile contains conflicting entries for glib
guix package: error:   first entry: glib@2.62.6 
/gnu/store/xr6zfqxklmr7skalljn5i071xmgqxbrm-glib-2.62.6
guix package: error:... propagated from cairo@1.16.0
guix package: error:... propagated from pango@1.44.7
guix package: error:   second entry: glib@2.62.6 
/gnu/store/q4100sjqcsdi6b232ndr93vxfzv9bzij-glib-2.62.6
guix package: error:... propagated from libnotify@0.7.7


This should be automated, so there would be just one step to add all
updates I need.

Though this is likely not a function of the format, but of the
popularity of both Javascript and Java.

JSON isn’t a well defined format for arbitrary data (try to store
numbers as keys and reason about what you get as return-values), and
XML is a monster of complexity.

bug#42407: GNOME window manager dies in two-monitor setup when IntelliJ opens a merge window

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

Yesterday I started running Guix in a two-monitor setup, using two
screens of different size aspect ratio (one 16x9, one 16x10). Now
everytime IntelliJ opens a merge-window, the window decorations
disappear and after a few seconds I get the notification that there was
an error that cannot be fixed with a button to log out.

This happened multiple times today.
