Hi,

While build vim tests, the terminal gets weird and its output is broken.

Toggle snippet (24 lines)
<ng0> [...] some build (no idea which one, I'm in a long series of
builds) just broke the output in a way that I'm only getting
gibberish for the renmaining tail of buildlogs. iirc vim builds
(specifically: the testsuite) would do something similar to your
open terminal.
[15:22]
*** mbuf (~Shakthi@45.251.33.79) has quit: Quit: Leaving [15:24]
<ng0> "but what do I mean by gibberish?"
<ng0> well:
<ng0> ????e ?b???d' ??cceeded ?°?e? 1↓3 ?ec??d?
<ng0>
?e??/e?±??e/?e??_????↓?≤::P???E?e???Te??::?e??_c???ec?_??_??b?e??e???≤_?ec?e??ed
PASSED [ 2?%]
<ng0> etc
<roptat> oh yes, vim tests :/ [15:25]
<roptat> is that with guix build or guix package? [15:26]
<ng0> build
<roptat> I haven't seen anything like that before and I'm not familia with UI
code [15:27]
<ng0> wiht building vim you'd get no problems a while back. it would just
continue building and only when builds finish make your terminal act
funny

Cheers,
Clément

ng0, could you send the version of ‘guix-daemon’ and that of ‘guix’ as
well as the exact output you’re seeing?
TIA,
Ludo’.

I experimented a bit with updating our version on vim and the gibberish
went away. Unfortunately I was unsuccessful in upgrading it.

Hello.

Efraim Flashner said that the garbled output while building
vim disappeared when he updated it.
It has been two years and both vim and vim-full have been
updated in guix since the last comment on this issue.

Checking cuirass, there is no garbled output:

Building locally,
My terminal survived and didn't notice any output getting garbled.
(i am using emacs-vterm)

$ guix --version

$ guix build vim --no-substitutes
$ guix build vim-full --no-substitutes

Going to go ahead and close out.
