[PATCH core-updates 0/5] Use Guile 3.0 in the initrd |
|
Date: |
Mon, 27 Apr 2020 20:20:27 +0200 |
Guix,
These patches changes the initrd to use Guile 3.0. By default it uses
%GUILE-STATIC-STRIPPED from (gnu packages make-bootstrap), which on the
core-updates branch refers to Guile 2.0.
It is suboptimal to define this new static Guile variant straight in
(gnu system linux-initrd), but adding it to (gnu packages guile) would
cause a cyclic module reference with (gnu packages make-bootstrap).
WDYT?
Marius Bakke (5):
gnu: %guile-static: Rewrite in terms of 'make-guile-static'.
gnu: %guile-static-stripped: Rewrite in terms of
'make-guile-static-stripped'.
gnu: make-bootstrap: Export MAKE-GUILE-STATIC and
MAKE-GUILE-STATIC-STRIPPED.
linux-initrd: Use Guile 3.0.
gnu: make-bootstrap: Do not export %GUILE-STATIC-STRIPPED.

Right, that is better. Done!

Heh, my main motivation for these patches was to remove scary warnings
about incompatible bytecode during boot, but we also boot faster as a
side effect! :-)
Patches pushed!
I think we are pretty close to actually merging this branch now..!
