[PATCH 3/3] gnu: Add pkgconf.

Recipients:(address . 56286@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . ()(address . paren@disroot.org)

Message-ID:20220628180831.9792-3-paren@disroot.org

Note that this package produces a `guix lint` warning that is basically

unfixable:

```

/home/paren/code/guix/gnu/packages/pkg-config.scm:213:16:

pkgconf@1.8.0-0.b0802cb: TLS certificate error: X.509 server certificate

for 'pkgconf.org' does not match:

C=US,ST=California,L=San Francisco,O=GitHub\, Inc.,CN=*.github.com

```

This is because pkgconf.org is actually hosted via Github Pages.

* gnu/packages/pkg-config.scm (pkgconf): New variable.

Did you try running check after install? That is often required by

package which don't do pre-inst-env well.

I think this is a misinterpretation on your part or a confusing wording
on theirs.  Basically, pkgconf does not *link* against any "huge"
binary, so it's fine.  Never mind that glib is a sane dependency to
have or that it also complains about pkg-config's license, which is
most meaningless in the context of tools you invoke at build time.

I'm not sure if we want to provide $PKG_CONFIG_PATH as a variable, but

there's at least two definitions within the same file now :)

You make an excellent point there. I'll add the guixrus kyua package and

its dependencies in a moment. Hopefully your note about using check

after install will work. Is there an easy way to switch them around?

What alternative would there be to providing $PKG_CONFIG_PATH as a

variable?

The standard way would be

(delete 'check)

(add-after 'install 'check (assoc-ref %standard-phases 'check))

I mean as a Scheme variable, rather than typing it out twice.  It's not
the biggest priority right now, but if another pkg-config
implementation rolls around, we might want to consider $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
a "standard" search-path.

Following up to that, I think I am slightly annoyed by typing out the

same thing twice. You could use (package-native-search-paths pkg-

config) instead, especially since they're in the same module and all.

Cheers

If it's anything like 'pkg-config', it should usually be in
'search-paths' for cross-compilation (for cross-pkg-config)
(native-search-paths would work too when compiling natively,
but only because currently then native-inputs and inputs are
merged together).

OTOH, I think those kind of changes are best done with some
concrete test cases in mind (maybe the package depending on pkgconf
that will be packaged later?) otherwise it's a bit speculative on what
will works and what not, but I believe it's something to keep in mind
for later.

(So TBC: I don't expect changes to the patch, but I expect changes will
be needed later, though only once we have concrete packages to actually
test them on).

Greetings,
Maxime.

Ah, yeah, I think we'd need a cross-pkgconf package.

I'm working on a project that needs to be able to use pkg-config

functionality, which is why I packaged pkgconf, so I guess we'll find

out when it's ready.

I talked with some Debian folks at Debconf, pkgconf is supposed to be

able to function as a drop-in replacement for pkg-config, so I assume we

should be able to reuse the search-paths exactly from pkg-config.
