Re: GNU Guix 1.2.0 T-shirts available
Maybe the guix website should have a shop tab for things like this. It would also be cool if they could mention suppliers that sell Guix System. -- Joshua Branson Sent from Emacs and Gnus https://gnucode.me https://video.hardlimit.com/accounts/joshua_branson/video-channels https://propernaming.org "You can have whatever you want, as long as you help enough other people get what they want." - Zig Ziglar
Guix Days and FOSDEM 2021
As we have a devroom at FOSDEM 2021 we decided to organise an online Guix day too on Feb. 8th. 2021. Unlike other years it is an online event which also gives the opportunity to have people attend from all over the world! We are making it a one day event of 12 hours so we can start with Asia, move into Europe and on to the USA! We'll likely have some (recorded) talks half way the day. The rest of the day is organized as an unconference with different topics and possibly different rooms much as we do in in the live version in Brussels every year. Anyone wanting to organise a session is invited to post an idea to the wiki page. Prerecordings and/or reading material are welcome so people can prepare for discussion. Edit: https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix/FOSDEM2021 During the FOSDEM devroom we'll ask speakers to mention Guix and the fringe event. We will organise a support room for Guix installation and use that runs the whole day. The organisers of this day are Manolis, Pjotr, Bonface and Efraim with support from the Guix development team. We hope to see you all at FOSDEM and during the Guix day!

wip-arm-bootstrap: Reduced binary seed bootstrap
Hi! I pushed an initial wip-arm-bootstrap that builds up to tcc-boot: --8<---cut here---start->8--- ./pre-inst-env guix build -e '(@@ (gnu packages commencement) tcc-boot)' --8<---cut here---end--->8--- Danny did a terrific job on armhf-linux support for GNU Mes and we are getting close to release v0.23. What's known to be missing is "setjmp" support for tcc/gcc. And, of course, for the Reduced binary seed bootstrap to work on ARM! In the previous status report https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-mes/2020-12/msg2.html I was stuck trying to get floats to work in tinycc but last weekend I finally managed to bootstrap tcc, with long longs and floats enabled. (this all took quite some effort). Moving this into Guix should have been almost trivial...but some silly "things" happened such as me working off a dirty mes build tree; took me several days to find. Anyway, the problem I'm looking at now is that while tcc-boot builds on an ARM box, it does not build on aarch64-linux, i.e. this --8<---cut here---start->8--- ./pre-inst-env guix build --system=armhf-linux \ -e '(@@ (gnu packages commencement) tcc-boot0)' --8<---cut here---end--->8--- fails on overdrive1. What's next? * Fix the aarch64-linux problem, * the current wip-arm-bootstrap is based on master: it needs to be rebased on core-updates, * the rest of the bootstrap needs attention, * which probably means supporting "setjmp" in the Mes C Library on ARM * remove binary seeds for binutils, gcc, glibc, coreutils, * verify the x86 bootstrap still works, * and the current version of tcc-boot0 applies two inexplicable hacks 477134b1 HACK bootstrappable: ARM: "tccgen_ok". 33b60f03 HACK bootstrappable: ARM: "tccpp_ok". that would be great to understand and get rid of, * and IWBN to fix Gash's stacktraces on failing exec configure: error: 'mescc' failed to compile conftest.c.

Re: Help, and get help reviewing patches this Friday (18th)
I'd like to thank cbaines for their help with my vim patch. It's been languishing in "needs more work" for about 3 months now. I wasn't able to fix everything, but I feel confident enough to push something that will work most of the time. -- Efraim Flashner אפרים פלשנר GPG key = A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted signature.asc Description: PGP signature
