Looking for packages that do something similar, I found
markdown-preview mode and copied a line, found out .js is also
required, which makes it:
(arguments '(#:include '("\\.el$" "\\.html$" "\\.js$")))
Case closed, sorry about the noise!
Emacs Impatient Mode File Access
Hi! I wrote a package for https://github.com/skeeto/impatient-mode It works to the point where I get a list of “Public Buffers” with one item as expected on http://localhost:8080/imp/, but when I click “test.html”, I get: error: (file-missing Opening input file No such file or directory /gnu/store/dszh53pr1a76ff6jqzhxs7krkmgdic2m-emacs-impatient-20200723.2117/share/emacs/site-lisp/impatient-20200723.2117/index.html) Now what to do?

I'm not sure there's a better way, other than having guix control > the full GNOME stack (which is probably not feasible or desirable on a > foreign distro). I since learned that setting the paths like that makes the Ubuntu-side work, but guix stuff will fail. Gnucash bails out, Inkscape segfaults and GIMP runs without toolbox icons. Also, with a bit of thought, GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE must point to one file; it can’t be a chain of paths. Thus at the very least GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE must be one thing for Ubuntu and another for guix. Short of running all guix-installed stuff from a terminal after setting the variable there, is there any solution? I also found out that plain `gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders` resolves to the guix version. The Ubuntu version resides at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders My current theory is that this pixbuf-mixup has been going on for longer, but only a recent guix update made stuff incompatible. In addition, some caching might complicate matters. Thank you for your thoughts, Fredrik! -- Thorsten Wilms

I noticed that some icons in GNOME-applications are missing, so any of those might do in place of compiz. They all belong to Ubuntu, not guix.

Foreign distro Unity desktop broken after guix update
Hi! Unity desktop stopped working after the first ’guix pull && guix package -u’ in maybe 2 weeks. There has been no update on the Ubuntu side between the last succesfull run and now, as far as I can tell. Unity desktop causes a few redraws, then exits back to the session greeter (lightdm). Now I would have assumed that there is no interaction between Unity and guix, since the former is entirely on the dpkg side. But via journalctl, I found a whole lot of: ``` Dec 27 15:44:51 charly compiz[2198]: ERROR 2021-12-27 15:44:51 nux.gltexture.resource.manager GLTextureResourceManager.cpp: 54 Invalid target, impossible to generate a new texture. Impossible to generate a pixbuf: Unable to load image-loading module: /gnu/store/2dza2psfbrrbvsni8jjqzzqx3hmm8kw8-librsvg-2.50.7/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-svg.so: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_PRIVATE' not found (required by /gnu/store/2fk1gz2s7ppdicynscra9b19byrrr866-glibc-2.33/lib/librt.so.1) ``` It looks like compiz segfaults shortly after a bunch of those, followed by unity7.service. Any ideas why dpkg-compiz tries to use guix-librsvg and what to do about it, or what else is going on here? -- Thorsten Wilms
Empty store items

DISTRHO-Ports license situation
Hi! I created a package for https://github.com/DISTRHO/DISTRHO-Ports. I now wonder if I should submit a patch, because the licensing situation is a mess, with several of the plugins having no information attached at all, though most have at least a pointer to a repo that claims a license (gpl2, gpl3, gpl3+, agpl3, MIT). The original versions of all plugins have been created with JUCE, which I though would require GPLing when using the free/personal license, but at least currently does so only when exceeding $50k revenue (https://juce.com/juce-6-licence). So parts of this is Free Software, other parts are ... just technically open-source. Would you accept this in Guix? -- Thorsten Wilms

If there are filesystem errors on boot, you get a initramfs shell that allows running fsck on root for repairs. Sometimes, some files can’t be fixed. The system resides on a Transcend 256GB MTE110S SSD. Now one would probably assume that SSD is faulty. What’s curious is that so far, any and all noticeable corruption has been limited to guix-related files! smartctl repports "overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED" and has "No Errors Logged". Full output attached at the end. It does however claim that all except one power cylce has been an unsafe shutdown, even though I had only a few hard resets and usually shutdown by issuing `poweroff`. Searching the web for this issue led me to turning off fast boot in the BIOS, but that didn’t help. I would still like to have a minimal invasive way to get beyond: ``` guix pull: error: Git error: invalid data in index - incorrect header signature ``` Or a way to to remove/replace /gnu/store from the running system. ``` ~: sudo smartctl -x /dev/nvme0n1p2 [sudo] password for thorwil: smartctl 7.1 2019-12-30 r5022 [x86_64-linux-5.8.0-53-generic] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-19, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Number: TS256GMTE110S Serial Number: G286710001 Firmware Version: S0905C3 PCI Vendor/Subsystem ID:0x126f IEEE OUI Identifier:0x00 Controller ID: 1 Number of Namespaces: 1 Namespace 1 Size/Capacity: 256.060.514.304 [256 GB] Namespace 1 Formatted LBA Size: 512 Local Time is: Tue May 18 09:23:26 2021 CEST Firmware Updates (0x12):1 Slot, no Reset required Optional Admin Commands (0x0007): Security Format Frmw_DL Optional NVM Commands (0x001f): Comp Wr_Unc DS_Mngmt Wr_Zero Sav/Sel_Feat Maximum Data Transfer Size: 64 Pages Warning Comp.

How to repair/reinstall guix on foreign distro
Hi! It seems every few weeks i’m thrown into a initramfs prompt, as root got mounted read-only. The way out is always running fsck, which reports errors and offers fixes that I either can’t map to anything, or that refer to paths that belong to guix. Usually only below /gnu/store, but this time also var/guix. Now `guix pull` fails with: ``` ;;; WARNING: loading compiled file /gnu/store/8bsnz1fk330qbn1p8k18i0j11vld4jxd-guix-module-union/lib/guile/3.0/site-ccache/guix/build-system/gnu.go failed: ;;; In procedure load-thunk-from-memory: not an ELF file Updating channel 'guix' from Git repository at 'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'... guix pull: error: Git error: invalid data in index - incorrect header signature ``` At first, I focused on the warning (sorry, leoprikler) ... the same git error happens when using an older guix. Now a fix for that would be great, but independent of that, I have to wonder how one should go about reinstalling guix on a foreign distro. I cannot umount or remount and remove /gnu/store! Even after `sudo systemctl stop gnu-store.mount`, /gnu/store is busy. `fuser -kim /gnu/store/` will throw me out of the session, even though I would think everything that belongs to it is part of the host (Ubuntu Unity 20.10). No sudo umount or remount or rm -rf allowed, /gnu/store remains ro and busy. Short of booting another system (say an USB stick), is there a way to clear /gnu/store? Or to safely replace its content? -- Thorsten Wilms

Inkscape 1.0 segfault when trying to bring up file chooser
Hi! Guix last updated yesterday, on top of Ubuntu. Triggering ‘Save as’ in Inkscape leads to: ``` (org.inkscape.Inkscape:5125): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 11:56:37.434: Settings schema 'org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser' does not contain a key named 'show-type-column' Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) ``` I assume this started happening with the update to Inkscape 1.0; in either case the issue is only a few days old. Various search hits point to /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml ``` ~: echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS /home/thorwil/.guix-profile/share:/home/thorwil/.guix-profile/share:/usr/share/unity:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/ ``` If I set XDG_DATA_DIRS to "", inkscape won’t even start. If I set it to just /home/thorwil/.guix-profile/share, it starts and crashes on Save_As, same as now. All store items for org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml do have a : ``` /gnu/store: find -name "*FileChooser.gschema*" | \ xargs grep show-type-column ./vgg2r0yzwwbhyxvd8lj2kwyw9779pjfk-gtk+-3.24.14/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml: ./zflpysfv6b5x9hvccds0m38x3bmzzdb3-gtk+-3.24.14/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml: ./mvdb71lvrqgzx6b3kd3fnqpnak8394hm-gtk+-3.24.14/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml: ./q3crl46igvsb10if6z7ffn165pkr74s1-gtk+-3.24.14/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml: ./xhdrc9viz956hj2a3gjlbi0gfvfbnwjd-gtk+-3.24.14/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml: ./mqjdi2b0jf4jwj9g5lbn2wdip4dnqgdh-gtk+-3.24.14/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml: ``` Checking the links below .guix-profile, I note there is no org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml, but there is gschemas.compiled: ``` ~/.guix-profile/share: ls -l glib-2.0/schemas/total 20 lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 91 Jan 1 1970 gschema.dtd -> /gnu/store/5v9bxzzxbp68c5g6vvvlaq1ddq39bkrf-glib-schemas/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschema.dtd lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 97 Jan 1 1970 gschemas.compiled -> /gnu/store/5v9bxzzxbp68c5g6vvvlaq1ddq39bkrf-glib-schemas/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 118 Jan 1 1970 org.gnome.gnumeric.dialogs.gschema.xml -> /gnu/store/5v9bxzzxbp68c5g6vvvlaq1ddq39bkrf-glib-schemas/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.gnumeric.dialogs.gschema.xml lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 110 Jan 1 1970 org.gnome.gnumeric.gschema.xml -> /gnu/store/5v9bxzzxbp68c5g6vvvlaq1ddq39bkrf-glib-schemas/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.gnumeric.gschema.xml lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 117 Jan 1 1970 org.gnome.gnumeric.plugin.gschema.xml -> /gnu/store/5v9bxzzxbp68c5g6vvvlaq1ddq39bkrf-glib-schemas/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.gnumeric.plugin.gschema.xml ``` There are a bunch of string visible in the binary file gschemas.compiled, ‘show-type-column’ or similar does not apear. Is the issue perhaps that gschemas.compiled would have had to be rebuilt, but wasn’t? I considered trying to symlink an org.gnome.gnumeric.gschema.xml, but I don’t see how to figure out which of the 5 store items it should be. -- Thorsten Wilms
Re: Root guix dereferencing
On 19/11/2018 16.06, Clément Lassieur wrote: If you check ~root/.config/guix/current/bin/guix, you'll see that it's updated when you run 'guix pull' as root. If you want that guix to be used for your 'root' user, you just need to make sure ~root/.config/guix/current/bin/ is first in root's $PATH. I could bet last time I checked, there was not "current", only "latest", below ~root/.config/guix, but indeed, there's a recently changed ~root/.config/guix/current/bin/guix. If you are using Ubuntu, you don't need to use that command though, but you need your systemd's guix-daemon to point to a recent guix. It could be either the one updated by root's 'guix pull', or the one updated by your current user's 'guix pull'. I chose the latter because I want to run 'guix pull' only once. You mean edit /etc/systemd/guix-daemin.service and change "/var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile/bin/guix-daemon"? If so, to what, as there's no guix-daemon in /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile/bin/. Is the whole reason to have /usr/local/bin/guix to make guix available for root without modifying root's PATH? Things are a bit clearer now, thanks, Clément. -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/

Re: Package Install Question for New User
On 05/11/2018 17.33, Brian Woodcox wrote: I then trying to install a package from the terminal. How about icecat. So I issue the command to install that. All of a sudden the system is downloading and compiling a pile of packages that were already installed as root. There is a single system-wide store for derivations at /gnu/store. The derivations are installed packages plus dependencies and removed packages that haven't been garbage-collected, yet. If a package is already in the store, installing it for a specific user should only require symlinks to be added, as far as I understand. Unless a dependency is missing. For example, I have "gimp" in my profile, pointing to an item in the store: --- ~: which gimp /home/thorwil/.guix-profile/bin/gimp ~: ls -l /home/thorwil/.guix-profile/bin/gimp lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 64 Jan 1 1970 /home/thorwil/.guix-profile/bin/gimp -> /gnu/store/wzp4ci2myckcg9qjqgm84rzv23snyz4d-gimp-2.10.6/bin/gimp --- Thus it seems you misinterpreted some output (or there is a bug).

hydra.gnu.org is currently down and mirror.hydra.gnu.org is just
proxying it.
See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-10/msg00434.html
Substitute-Server-Authorization:
As described at
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/guix.html#Substitute-Server-Authorization
After `guix archive --authorize < berlin.guixsd.org.pub`
you may run commands with:
`--substitute-urls="https://berlin.guixsd.org`
You may want to add this setting globally and permanently, so you don't
have to specify it every time you run guix. You can do this by passing
the option to the guix daemon
- when using GuixSD, modify guix-service in your system configuration,
by specifying the substitute-urls in the configuration. (see
guix-configuration in
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Base-Services.html )
Not applicable in your case:
- when using guix on another distribution with systemd, you can modify
the the ExecStart line in /etc/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service as
follows:
ExecStart=/var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile/bin/guix-daemon
--build-users-group=guixbuild
"--substitute-urls=https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org https://berlin.guixsd.org;;

By the way: when revisiting this issue, I found the manual a bit confusing. You'll find all the information you need when you read the entire section on substitutes from front to back, but when you just try to find specific information using the headlines, it's a bit confusing. For example, to learn about --substitute-urls and the daemon settings for other substitute servers, you'll need to read "Official Substitute Server", which you might not do when looking to add another server. The subtitle for "Substitute Server Authorization" says "How to enable or disable substitutes", but doesn't give all the information you need to enable another substitute server. If people here agree, I'd be happy to send a documentation patch. For whatever it may be worth, when I first read about https://berlin.guixsd.org, I wondered if it could/should be used additionally, looked at the documentation, found it confusing and then forgot about the issue. -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/

“make install” is trying to install the plugin under GIMP’s prefix,
which is read-only.
The solution is to adjust the gimp-resynthesizer makefile variables so
that the plugin gets installed to $(libdir)/gimp/2.0/plug-ins—i.e.,
under/gnu/store/…-gimp-resnythesizer-2.0.3/lib.

I suspect I will need the (add-after 'unpack 'set-prefix ...) form, too,

I've been told the patch-shebang phase should take care of references to

It does appear, though:

configure includes these lines:

Can't configure guix, no guile-sqlite3
Hi! I wanted to add a package, test it and send in a patch. The docs are not quite as clear as they should be on the right steps to take, but since helpful and knowledgable people are never far on #guix, it became clear that it should be (I hope): git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git cd guix *add package definition, commit right here, or maybe later* guix environment guix ./bootstrap ./configure --localstatedir=/var ./pre-inst-env guix package -i *new-package* configure fails with: checking whether Guile-Sqlite3 is available and recent enough... no It does so even within `guix environment guix --ad-hoc guile-sqlite3` I'm aware of recent discussions regarding `./pre-inst-env guix system`.

Custom kernel module woes
Hi!
My mentionable reasons for a custom kernel are optimizations for audio
work (CONFIG_HZ=1000 and "Preemptible Kernel (Low-Latency Desktop)"),
the specific CPU and reducing time and energy costs of building by
selecting only the necessary drivers.
I added the package definition to my system configuration to then have
the kernel build and put into place via `guix system reconfigure
/ect/config.scm`. This failed several times after building, when guix
does what I understand to be an initramfs test run, where it tries to
load a bunch of modules.
With the help of #guix, I found a list that appears in
linux-modules-builder and init-builder:
("ahci" "usb-storage" "uas" "usbhid" "hid-generic" "hid-apple"
"dm-crypt" "xts" "serpent_generic" "wp512" "nls_iso8859-1" "pata_acpi"
"pata_atiixp" "isci" "virtio_pci" "virtio_balloon" "virtio_blk"
"virtio_net" "virtio_console")
Aside of the issue of requiring hid-apple on a desktop PC, and lots of
crypto where no encrypted partition is in sight, it would be nice if an
error could be triggered before the entire kernel and drivers are build.
My notes from hunting down these configuration dependencies:
ahci
dm-crypt, depends on:
Multiple device driver support: Device mapper support: Crypt target
support
Cryptographic API: User-space interface for hash algorithms
User-space interface for symmetric key cipher
algorithms
RIPEMD-160 digest algorithm
SHA384 and SHA512 digest algorithms
wp512 / Whirlpool digest algorithms
LRW support
serpent_generic / Serpent cipher algorithm
Twofish cipher algorithm
Device Drivers: Block Devices: Loopback device support
File systems: FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support
hid-generic
hid-apple
isci
nls_iso8859-1
pata_acpi
pata_atiixp
uas, CONFIG_USB_UAS in Device Drivers, USB, USB Attached SCSI.
usb-storage
usbhid
virtio_pci
virtio_balloon
virtio_blk
virtio_net
virtio_console
xts
Things were going well until I got to XTS support. With either my custom
configuration, or a default one, XTS is stuck on -*-, i.e. mandatory
built-in. The after-build phase will fail if there's no xts.ko module!
I tried to figure out the dependencies and failed. Finally, I took the
guix kernel configuration, replaced the entire segment device-drivers up
to file-systems with one from my custom version and did the few other
changes. It works!
Now if anyone knows or can figure out how *exactly* to turn XTS's -*-
into a {M}, that would still be good to know. A script that turns any
kernel configuration into a guix-sd-safe one, or changes to make these
gymnastics unnecessary would be great!
A drawback of a lean and specific kernel is of course that it won't work
with drastically changed hardware. A situation once can suddenly be
forced into on hardware failure.
Kernel variants are tied to system generations, right? What do I have to
do if I want a choice between 2 kernels independent of generations?

Why do you use one level of indirection for no gain? This can go into

That modify-services looks very suspicious. Why the nested cons*?
modify-services should be fed with one list of services, followed by

Of course it doesn't work, since it runs in its own shell and export

Dual-booting solution with only one actual Grub installation
Hi once again,
There's a convenient dual-booting solution that I think hasn't been
mentioned in these circles. You can let Grub2 offer an item that will
load another grub.cfg.
In my case, that's a Grub installed from Ubuntu, with a menu that will
be updated in sync with kernel installation/removal, plus one "Guix SD"
item that will lead to the known Guix SD menu, also always up-to-date,
without an actual second Grub installation.
No manual updating, no chain-loading of one or the other from an
independent third Grub.
Guix SD: /etc/config.scm, in operating-system:
(bootloader (bootloader-configuration (bootloader (bootloader (inherit
grub-bootloader) (installer #~(const #t))
Thanks to snape in #guix. With this, /boot/grub/grub.cfg will be
generated, but Grub won't actually be installed.
Other system with Grub in MBR, addition to: /etc/grub.d/40_custom:
menuentry 'GuixSD' {
search --fs-uuid --set=root a3a97a6f-a4c9-4569-98a3-4306f4db9ff8
configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
}
Don't forget `sudo update-grub`.

Re: Wayland setup
On rereading Weston documentation, I noticed that weston-launch should be setuid. As that hasn't been taken care of, I added to my configuration: ;; weston-launch needs to be setuid: (setuid-programs (cons #~(string-append #$weston "/bin/weston-launch") %setuid-programs)) Before: `which weston-launch` => /run/current-system/profile/bin/weston-launch Aftwerwards `which weston-launch` => /run/setuid-programs/ It makes no difference, though. Still just: "t it.org/wiki/Specifications/basedir-specis not set.n2-weston-3.0.0/bin/weston 2t=weston=3.0.0" but nothing I could find below /var/log, nothing suspicious in dmesg. Suggestions on how to get at least a sensible error out of it?
Re: Wayland setup
Hi!
Thank you, Andreas and Oleg.
Aside of additional services, this seems to be the way to get Weston
with a minimum of stuff installed:
---
(use-modules (gnu)
(gnu packages freedesktop) ; for wayland
(gnu packages xorg)) ; for xorg-server-xwayland
(use-service-modules networking)
(operating-system
...
;; Trying weston-launch as plain user: got told to either run it from
;; an active and local (systemd) session, or add the user to weston-
;; launch. weston-launch needs to be created, first:
(groups (cons (user-group (system? #t) (name "weston-launch"))
%base-groups))
(users (cons (user-account
(name "thorwil")
(group "users")
(supplementary-groups '("audio"
"netdev"
"video"
"weston-launch"
"wheel"))
(home-directory "/home/thorwil"))
%base-user-accounts))
;; Globally-installed packages.
(packages (cons* xorg-server-xwayland wayland weston %base-packages))
;; Add service to the baseline
(services (cons* (console-keymap-service "de-latin1-nodeadkeys")
(dhcp-client-service)
(simple-service 'etc-additions
etc-service-type
(list `("inputrc" ,(plain-file
"inputrc" "set bell-style none"
(gpm-service) ; mouse on the console
%base-services)))
---
From my reading, the command to launch Weston outside of an X session
is weston-launch. The first attempt led to a message about the
"weston-launch" group. It would have been nice to have that taken care
of automatically, though I don't see how that could happen in harmony
with hand-edited configuration.
The next error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set.
https://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html offers this script, which
I used:
if test -z "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"; then
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/${UID}-runtime-dir
if ! test -d "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"; then
mkdir "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"
chmod 0700 "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"
fi
fi
So now "weston-launch" will lead to no (obvious) effect, except printing
this one mangled line:
"t it.org/wiki/Specifications/basedir-specis not
set.n2-weston-3.0.0/bin/weston 2t=weston=3.0.0"
Specifying a TTY like "weston-launch -t 2" makes no difference, except
for "7", in which case the whole system becomes unresponsive after an
Alt-F7.
I tried with and without this ~/.config/weston.ini:
---
[core]
xwayland=true
[keyboard]
keymap_layout=de-latin1-nodeadkeys
[output]
name=WL1
mode=2560x1600
---
Any ideas? Success stories with any other Wayland compositor outside of
Gnome?
