Guix 1.0.1 is now finally available on openSUSE Tumbleweed :) The
reviewing took very long and so version 1.0.0 never went through...

Sadly Guix 1.0.x can't be find on openSUSE Leap 15.x/SLES 15 anymore as
it requires Guile 2.2. They will stay on Guix 0.16 :(

Hint: I also maintain a Guix version build from master commits (updated
once ore twice a week) at:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:jbrielmaier:guix

If you encounter any issues with Guix on (open)SUSE feel free to reach
me out (by mail or in freenode as jonsger).

Happy hacking
Jonathan

Oh I misunderstood as Eric was asking for expectations. That's okay.

Sure, I do that often and guix folks are helpful ☺



Re: Lightning talk at IPFS camp

2019-06-24 Thread Pierre Neidhardt
Update: I've been asked if I wanted to conduct a "Deep dive"
(https://github.com/ipfs/camp/blob/master/DEEP_DIVES/README.md) about
IPFS and Guix.  In other words: what problem we've encountered, how to
solve them, what we'd like to do.

I think it would be a good time to discuss a work out bug
33899   "[PATCH 0/5] Distributing substitutes over IPFS" that Ludovic
submitted a while ago.

What do you people think?

Ludovic, what are the most pressing issues with this patch that you'd
like to raise?

Cheers!

It was a lot of fun and an honor to participate in this episode, so
thanks to you and to Serge!

And yes, since then I’ve listened to other episodes and as others said,
there’s always a lot to learn and it’s pleasant to listen to!

If you see /dev/sr0, then I guess it counts.  Thanks for reporting.
