I've noticed that certain packages never seem to have substitutes
available from ci.guix.gnu.org.

This is not about packages that consistently fail to build, like Vigra
(LibreOffice) [0], but packages that never seem to be attempted at all,
and are not found when searching on the CI results.

For example, ncmpcpp has not been built since February 2020:


And Borg has apparently never been built:


By the way, the dates that are shown in this interface do not display
the year (can we fix that?):

This is broken in a very strange, indeterministic way. At first I
thought you were right. But with modified searches, there are several
hits. For example this query:


has several hits, for example one for x86-64_linux from "8 Apr 04:09
+0200".

But when I further restrict the search:


I have only two results which are from

25 Feb 04:26 +0100
28 Apr 07:23 +0200

Where is the one from April 8 gone?

I'm not sure if that is related, but the search isn't stable: When
reloading the following URL, I can get several different search results:


Sometimes broken, sometimes good.

And as you see above, timezone is MET with daylight-saving-time on/off.
For an international project, that should better be UTC?

Interesting... and strange. Thanks for digging in.

For getting data in to the Guix Data Service, I added a way of fetching
the Cuirass build for an ouptut, [1] for example.


The Guix Data Service gathers up the builds, and displays them. This is
a useful page when looking at if a package has been built:

Do you still encounter these issues with current Cuirass?

If not, let's close this issue!

Thanks,

I don't think so, and I think Cuirass has changed enough that any
similar problem would have a different cause. Closing...
Closed
