This bug/patch only moves [1] to here, so the progress can be tracked
regardless of archive date.

This is done because the patch might be an improvement to the list of
packages available in GNU Guix.

I have attached a set of recipes (not a patch!) related to GNU Ring and
the dependencies. This attachment is more updated than [2].

However, if you want to test GNU Ring in its unstable state, you must
apply [3] (either directly on your copy of GNU Guix or by making your
own recipes based on the patch) and then use the recipes attached in
this message.

I have added the "help" tag because:

1. Due to time and other constraints (specially related to job-seeking)
I no longer have as much time to work on this;

2. I don't know how to fix the issues, specially those related with
customizations on configure/build flags ([1]) and with patches ([2]);

3. Some patches made by GNU Ring have been sent by me to some of their
upstream projects but these only accept patches that come from the
patch authors ([3]).

An attempt was made to contact the patch authors but so far I got no
replies ([2]) (perhaps because the authors don't seem to use their
own issue tracker anymore?);

4. The lack of news and of native support for GnuTLS in pjproject/PJSIP
([4]) also makes things harder (because GNU Ring would have to
maintain their patch to do so);

5. There's no confirmation that the Guix recipes can keep using these
patches and configure/build flag customizations.

There is a new wip-ring branch in our Git repo on Savannah:


Considering this new effort to package Ring / Jami, and the fact that a
lot of time has passed without any activity on these patches, I'm
closing this bug ticket.
