Re: i686 core-updates failure.

[Simon Tournier]

Hi,

CC: teams for each ecosystem.


About i686 core-updates failures, well I do not know where to start :-)
when giving a look at:

https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/391720/dashboard?system=i686-linux


1. Java

Well, it seems broken because wget-1.21.3
<https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/709528/log/raw>.

Any taker?


2. Python

Well, python-numpy-1.23.2 seems the first to tackle for improving the
situation. <https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/712672/log/raw>

Any taker?



3. Haskell:

Well, Haskell is broken because ghc-8.10.7 is broken with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
building of `/gnu/store/fk4nlvkdl0qgafybd8kbg2c9a4vq5fz4-ghc-8.10.7.drv' timed 
out after 3600 seconds of silence
@ build-failed /gnu/store/fk4nlvkdl0qgafybd8kbg2c9a4vq5fz4-ghc-8.10.7.drv - 
timeout
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Note that Haskell is also broken on master for a similar error with
ghc-9.2.5 <https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/478772/log/raw>.

Therefore, the question is: do we drop Haskell for i686?


4. R

Corollary of #3, pandoc is broken and so many R packages too.

Well, the situation seems similar with master for Haskell and R
packages.
