Hello, pdfgrep is an utility to search text in PDF files, similar to GNU grep. Lint and tested. GreetingsFrom 169cca9c4a40040b1997da4053112e2bcd38d1be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: rennes Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2017 15:02:00 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] gnu: Add pdfgrep. *

License Question for language packs

Hi, I'm about to package the 55 localization packages for KDE. The licence for these files seems to be very complicated, as it may depend on the copyright of the translated application. Debian's Copyright file [1] says: License: The licence for translations is the same as that of the application

website translations

One thing I like about the template of https://taler.net is the usage of javascript free translations of text (jinja2 is used), easy to select and write. Actually that's the only reason why I favor it right now for my project web site launch over the haunt + guile mix Guix itself uses. I think

Re: [PATCH 2/2] gnu: Add GNU Mach.

For GNU/Linux (core-updates) works, also works in Hurd. It builds on i686-linux so I’ve added it to ‘supported-systems’ (as long as we’re on one of the CPUs that Mach supports, that’s fine I guess.) From 2128b50a0dda9e4e6dbad74f2706aee58f81708d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: rennes

Re: Install hook

The problem as I understand it is as follows: Two (or more) packages both contain a file: /gnu/store/.../xyz/foo So long as those two packages are not both installed into the same profile at the same time, this is not a problem. However if the user chooses to install both packages

Re: Install hook

I think install hooks are scripts run after each package installation, that are provided by the package itself. We already have a similar mechanism that takes place when building the user's profile. See http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/guix/profiles.scm. For instance, we build a

Re: Install hook

Hello Florian, I agree that this is a problem. It has been discussed before, and various solutions have been suggested, but I don't think install hooks was one of them. Can you elaborate on your idea? What would an install hook do, and how would it work? J' On Sun, Mar 19, 2017 at

Install hook

Hello, Currently my ~/.guix-profile/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled file contains only GSettings from one package. Guix warns about “arbitrarily choosing” this file when installing a package. This is bad; gschemas.compiled should be recreated on package install to include all GSettings
