This makes > it more tedious to update packages :( “guix refresh” considers the importers’ output to be authoritative. Can the Python importer be improved to discover the need for TeX things? (If not the whole list of packages perhaps a collection package.) In the CRAN importer we routinely check the contents of Makefiles, configure scripts, etc to detect otherwise undeclared dependencies. Perhaps the pypi importer could do something similar. -- Ricardo

Hi jgart, "jgart" skribis: > ./pre-inst-env guix refresh --update python-sphinx [...] > - ;; The Sphinx LaTeX library '\RequirePackage' or \\usepackage > - ;; these: > - texlive-amsfonts ;amsmath, amssymb, amstext > - texlive-amsmath > - texlive-capt-of > - texlive-carlisle ;remreset To avoid this problem one can add package properties such as ‘updater-extra-native-inputs’ in this case: https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-refresh.html#index-updater_002dextra_002dinputs_002c-package-property However, the way it’s implemented right now, you have to list the name of every input that should be preserved by ‘guix refresh -u’, which is inconvenient in this particular case because there are many of them. I can think of two ways to improve on that: 1. Use one of the ‘texlive-scheme-*’ packages instead of this long list. :-) 2. Change the code to interpret extra inputs are regexps instead of names. Thoughts? Ludo’.
