Cuirass problem with building from manifest file

Hi!

I am unable to build a simple manifest containing the hello package, see

below. I tried imitating the manual

https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Continuous-Integration.htmlbut

perhaps the manifest.scm is not supposed to contain a regular manifest

or maybe that config example is outdated?

============================

The hello.scm file - works fine using guix package -m hello.scm

============================

cat /home/cuirass/my-guixsd-config.sh/manifests/hello.scm

(specifications->manifest

(append (list "hello")

'()))

Hello David,

This is probably a consequence of me breaking things today. I restored

the original handling of package licenses with b5f2a035.

This means that you need to uses non "#f" licenses in your custom

packages to avoid the issue you encountered in

Could you please confirm that it works?

Thanks,

Mathieu

It does not. Building from manifest gives no error at all but goes

stale. The last output line in /var/log/cuirass.log is just:

2020-11-03T07:57:46 evaluating spec 'my-pkgs'

htop shows no cpu usage.

Building packages with #f licenses throws the same error again as in

#44370.

Packages are otherwise built but reported as failed, as in

Things do work now. I had made a mistake in my config.

In case it helps someone; to fix it, I changed my-guixsd-config input

load path to ".":

((#:name . "config")

(#:url . "file:///home/cuirass/my-guixsd-config.sh")

(#:load-path . ".")

(#:branch . "master")

(#:no-compile? . #t))

and in proc-args I changed the manifests path, and made sure "manifests"

has quotes around it, so I changed it to:

(#:proc-args .

((subset . "manifests")

(systems . ("x86_64-linux"))

(manifests . (("config" . "manifests/user1.scm")))

))

which now built over 200 packages successfully, yay!

Thanks for your help Mathieu!

Best regards,

David

Hello,

As the specification format is completely new and the evaluation process

has been rewritten, I think we can close this one.

Thanks,

Mathieu
