guix/build-aux, branch v1.3.0

maint: update-NEWS: Sort packages prior writing to the data file.

2021-05-10T17:48:02+00:00

* build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (main): Sort packages.

import: Remove Nix importer.

2021-04-25T12:34:09+00:00

This importer has suffered from bitrot and no longer works with current
Nix and Nixpkgs.  See  and
.

* guix/import/snix.scm, guix/scripts/import/nix.scm,
tests/snix.scm: Remove.
* Makefile.am (MODULES, SCM_TESTS): Remove them.
* guix/scripts/import.scm (importers): Remove "nix".
* build-aux/test-env.in: Remove NIXPKGS variable.
* configure.ac: Remove '--with-nixpkgs' option.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix import): Remove bit about "guix import
nix".
* etc/completion/fish/guix.fish: Likewise.

build-aux: Relax the regexp used to match NEWS sections.

2021-04-24T01:32:46+00:00

A number of packages doesn't really make sense in the name of the section to
be substituted.  This change allows using simply '*** new packages' instead of
'*** 1999 new packages', for example, and have the update-NEWS.scm script
update it.

* build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (write-packages-added) : Do not care about
leading white space in the name of the section.

build-self: Take care of the spinner in the parent process.

2021-04-01T12:58:55+00:00

This simplifies code and mostly ensures we don't print a spinner while
there's build activity going on.

* build-aux/build-self.scm (build-program): Remove 'spin' and
'call-with-new-thread' call from "compute-guix-derivation" body.  Remove
"Computing Guix derivation" message.
(proxy): Pass extra argument to 'select'.  Display a spinner when
'select' returns empty lists.
(build): Print "Computing Guix derivation" message here.

build-self: Forward sub-process build output to (current-build-output-port).

2021-04-01T12:58:55+00:00

Fixes .

* build-aux/build-self.scm (build-program): Add extra 'build-output'
parameter.  Interpret it as a socket name and connect to it; use it as
the CURRENT-BUILD-OUTPUT-PORT.
(proxy): New procedure.
(build): Open a named socket.  Accept connections and call 'proxy' on it.

build-self: Silent Guile warnings while computing the derivation.

2021-03-19T20:44:36+00:00

In particular, silence the Guile-Git autoload warnings introduced by
c1940fde43c7aca37d67589cc5cb248086d17d56.

* build-aux/build-self.scm (build-program): Wrap 'guix-derivation' call
in 'parameterize'.

system.
