Description: Text Data
Hi. I have versionitis---obsession with running the current version of
my favorite packages. So I install emacs-next with the following
package transformation option:
--with-branch=emacs-next=master
I have a script that excludes emacs-next from regular `guix upgrade',
because upgrading from Git master every day would be too much. I
upgrade emacs-next every fortnight.
Most often this builds and works correctly, but, yesterday,
Guix-installed emacs-next stopped working with native compilation. I
traced the problem to Emacs commit
97b928ce09d6034ebcb541fb548e5d4862302add
which changes the default value of option `native-comp-driver-options'.
That change is not beneficial to GNU/Linux and breaks Guix's emacs-next
recipe. The recipe could be trivially fixed by Guix developers, but for
Guix users I find it more convenient to install emacs-next with the
attached patch. I will later report the problem to guix-devel so they
fix the recipe.
Meanwhile, those who want a fresh emacs-next can save the attached patch
in their computer and install emacs-next like this:
guix install --with-branch=emacs-next=master --with-patch=emacs-next=PATCH
emacs-next
Where PATCH is the path to the patch in your computer.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Jorge
