I haven't been able to crack the issue with Shogun and R. The attached
patch explicitly disables the R interface which allows shogun to build
properly while the R problem is resolved.

FYI, this is an updated patch that bypasses the Python interface issue
and runs into an issue with R.

Other than Shogun's Python/SWIG-related build failure (attached), this
patch seems to work fairly well. There appears to be an upstream issue
related to the invalid conversion mentioned in the build failure. I'm
keeping an eye on it for any new developments.

Please add a comment above the 'swig-for-octave' definition explaining what it's for. I was confused at first that you didn't change the octave definition, but now I guess that it's for other packages that wish to use octave via swig, or something along those lines? It should be good to explain in a comment. Also, I think it would be better to put the 'swig-for-octave' definition immediately after the one for 'swig', so that it's more likely to be noticed by people working on swig. This package has more connection to swig than it does to shogun. It has no direct connection to 'shogun' except that shogun is currently the only user of it. Another question: instead of adding the patch, how about changing the origin to build from a git checkout? The advantage of that is that it requires less trust from users. I look at this big patch and I wonder if I should check to make sure it matches what upstream has (I didn't). If it's a git checkout, there's less trust needed. It would also make later upgrades easier. It might also be better to call the package "swig-git" or something, dunno. What do you think? Thanks for working on it. Mark

I agree that this will work. Is the attached patch something like what
you're thinking?

On the core-updates branch, "guix refresh -l swig" reports that updating swig requires 1453 rebuilds. That's too many, so I reverted it. Instead, I suggest creating a different 'swig' package for octave that inherits from the primary one and adds this patch. What do you think? Mark
