Hello Guix!
This series of patches updates the style of package definitions.
The first one uses gexps and ‘local-file’ in (gnu packages base).
The rest is about removing reliance on input labels in build-side
code, primarily by changing:
(string-append (assoc-ref inputs "LABEL") "FILE")
to one of:
(search-input-file inputs "FILE")
(search-input-directory inputs "FILE")
This change will help if we eventually remove input labels entirely
from the API (remember that input labels are now unnecessary in
package definitions but they’re still returned by ‘package-inputs’
and similar procedures).
The idea is that code should not rely on package names when looking
for files as this would prevent things such as
‘--with-inputs=openmpi=mpich’ since the label in the original package
would be “openmpi” whereas it’d be “mpich” in the transformed package.
In this case (a kind of “virtual dependencies”), a better idiom is:
(search-input-file inputs "lib/libmpi.so")
as this explicitly accommodates any implementation of that library.
I initially made the ‘search-input-file’ changes by grepping for
“(string-append (search-input inputs”, replacing everything in wgrep
mode. I then reviewed changes one by one (though without rebuilding
everything) and committed them in chunks of similar changes for
easier review/bisecting.
I’d like to push this to core-updates soonish.
Feedback welcome!
Ludo’.
