439 | *** Ignore trailing components for ‘guix gc -d’ (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19757>) |
440 | *** ‘guix lint’ warns only when all the URIs are unreachable | |
441 | *** ‘guix system init’ overwrites the items in the target store | |
442 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20722>) | |
443 | *** ‘guix-register’ performs deduplication even when --prefix is passed | |
444 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19044>) | |
445 | *** The ‘location’ of packages is no longer preserved by ‘inherit’ | |

476 | ||
477 | It creates X.509 certificate bundles in the profile’s etc/ssl directory, if | |
478 | needed, generates a package database cache for GHC if the profile includes GHC | |
479 | (the Haskell compiler), and generates an Info ‘dir’ file (this part was | |

491 | ||
492 | Before that the “substituter” used threads. Using HTTP pipelining means that | |
493 | resource consumption is reduced on both the client and server sides. As a | |
494 | side effect, a progress report is displayed as substitute info is downloaded. | |
495 | ||
496 | *** ‘guix package’ warns when a $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH module cannot be loaded | |
497 | ||
498 | *** New ‘--sources’ option to ‘guix build’ | |

527 | ||
528 | See “X.509 Certificates” in the manual. | |
529 | ||

768 | ** Programming interfaces | |
769 | ||
770 | *** New (guix build gremlin) to parse and validate ELF dynamic link info | |
771 | ||
772 | *** (guix build-system gnu) has a new ‘validate-runpath’ phase | |
773 | ||
774 | This phase reads the dynamic entries of ELF files and reports libraries listed | |
775 | as NEEDED that are not found in the RUNPATH. | |
776 | ||
777 | *** New (gnu services desktop) module and ‘%desktop-services’ variable | |
778 | ||
779 | *** New (guix cvs-download) module, for CVS checkouts | |
780 | ||
781 | *** New (guix build-system waf) module, for the Waf build system | |
782 | ||
783 | *** New (guix build-system haskell) module, to build Haskell packages | |
784 | ||
785 | *** (guix build-system gnu) now supports zip archives | |
786 | ||
787 | *** New convenience syntax ‘modify-phases’ added in (guix build utils) | |
788 | ||
789 | *** The ‘ld’ wrapper more finely determines whether to use ‘-rpath’ | |
790 | ||
791 | *** (guix gexp) exports ‘gexp-input’ to describe input unambiguously | |
792 | ||
793 | *** The ‘define-gexp-compiler’ form allows (guix gexp) to be extended | |
794 | ||
795 | *** New ‘local-file’ constructor exported by (guix gexp) | |
796 | ||
797 | ** Noteworthy bug fixes | |
798 | ||
799 | *** Profiles created with ‘guix package -p’ as indirect GC roots | |
800 | ||
801 | Before that they were made permanent GC roots–i.e., uncollectable. | |
802 | ||
803 | *** ‘guix package’ distinguishes downgrades from upgrades | |
804 | ||
805 | *** Handle HTTP redirects to relative URI references | |
806 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19840>) | |
807 | ||
808 | *** Downloads now honor the ‘http_proxy’ environment variable | |
809 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20402>) | |
810 | ||
811 | *** ‘--no-*’ options are now always correctly handled | |
812 | (<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-02/msg00702.html>) | |
813 | ||
814 | *** SLiM no longer leaks open file descriptors | |
815 | ||
816 | *** Don't compare <pam-service> objects with 'equal?' | |
817 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20037>) | |
818 | ||
819 | *** x86_64 and i686 bootstrap binaries updated (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19780>) | |
820 | ||
821 | *** ‘find-files’ no longer follows symlinks (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20081>) | |
822 | ||
823 | *** libc message catalog (‘libc.mo’) is now installed | |
824 | ||
825 | *** libstdc++ has appropriate RUNPATH (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20358>) | |
826 | ||
827 | *** ‘dhcp-client-service’ now correctly tracks dhclient’s PID | |
828 | ||
829 | ** Native language support | |
830 | ||
831 | *** New translations: da (Danish) | |
832 | ||
833 | *** Updated translations: eo | |
834 | ||
43faf869 LC |
835 | * Changes in 0.8.1 (since 0.8) |
836 | ||
837 | ** Package management | |
838 | ||
839 | *** New ‘--share’ and ‘--expose’ options for ‘guix system vm’ | |
840 | ||
841 | See “Invoking guix system” in the manual. | |
842 | ||
843 | *** Emacs mode now automatically loads newly installed Emacs packages | |
844 | ||
845 | See “Emacs Initial Setup” in the manual. | |
846 | ||
847 | *** ‘guix-daemon’ now defaults to ‘--cores=0 --jobs=1’ | |
848 | ||
849 | In other words, at any given time, only one derivation is being built or | |
850 | substituted, and it can use as many cores as available. Before, there could | |
851 | be N derivations using N cores, which was obviously not desirable. | |
852 | ||
853 | *** Command-line tools support the ‘GUIX_BUILD_OPTIONS’ environment variable | |
854 | ||
855 | See “Invoking guix build” in the manual. | |
856 | ||
857 | *** ‘guix environment’ is faster | |
858 | ||
859 | *** New ‘--recursive’ option for ‘guix archive’ | |
860 | ||
861 | See “Invoking guix archive” in the manual. | |
862 | ||
863 | *** Missing patches required by a package definition are gracefully reported | |
864 | ||
865 | *** ‘guix lint’ supports additional checkers | |
866 | ||
867 | The new checkers are ‘gnu-description’, ‘home-page’, and ‘source’. | |
868 | See “Invoking guix lint” in the manual. | |
869 | ||
870 | *** New CPAN importer for ‘guix import’ | |
871 | ||
872 | See “Invoking guix import” in the manual. | |
873 | ||
43faf869 LC |
874 | ** Distribution |
875 | ||
876 | *** USB installation image has more tools | |
877 | ||
878 | Tools added since 0.8: wpa_supplicant, cryptsetup, and iw. | |
879 | ||
880 | *** Linux kernel module dependencies are automatically handled | |
881 | ||
882 | Before that, all the modules needed in the initrd would need to be explicitly | |
883 | listed, including their dependencies, and in topological order. | |
884 | ||
885 | *** Font packages now all have a name starting with ‘font-’ | |
886 | ||
887 | See “Fonts” in the manual. | |
888 | ||
889 | *** Shell startup files have been cleaned up | |
890 | ||
891 | /etc/profile contains only environment variable definitions, which may also be | |
892 | used when running a different shell. The skeletons for user’s ‘.bash_profile’ | |
893 | and ‘.bashrc’ files behave as documented in the Bash manual. Zsh is supported. | |
894 | ||
895 | *** The ‘root’ account gets a copy of the account skeleton files | |
896 | ||
897 | Before that, the skeleton files would only be copied to non-root accounts. | |
898 | ||
899 | *** The name service cache daemon (nscd) is configurable | |
900 | ||
901 | By default it aggressively caches host and service lookups. See “Base | |
902 | Services” in the manual. | |
903 | ||
904 | *** Available locale definitions are now declared in ‘operating-system’ | |
905 | ||
906 | Before, the ‘glibc’ package would contain all the existing locales, as well as | |
907 | the ‘locale-archive’ file, amounting to 110 MiB. See “Locales” in the manual. | |
908 | ||
909 | *** SLiM sessions are configurable | |
910 | ||
911 | Pressing F1 in the SLiM graphical log-in screen allows users to choose among | |
912 | the pre-configured session types. See “X Window” in the manual. | |
913 | ||
914 | *** Man pages and Info files are systematically gzip-compressed | |
915 | ||
916 | *** ‘gnu-build-system’ ensures that documentation is in share/{man,info} | |
917 | ||
918 | If a package installs to $prefix/{man,info}, this is automatically fixed to be | |
919 | $prefix/share/{man,info}. | |
920 | ||
921 | *** ‘strip’ is invoked only on ELF files and ‘ar’ archives | |
922 | ||
923 | *** ‘libtool’ and ‘libltdl’ are now separate packages | |
924 | ||
925 | *** Emacs mode is readily usable on the Guix System Distribution | |
926 | ||
927 | *** Substitutes are now enabled by default on freshly installed systems | |

1018 | ** Programming interfaces | |
1019 | ||
1020 | *** New (guix elf) and (gnu build linux-modules) modules | |
1021 | ||
1022 | These provide resolution of Linux kernel module dependencies. See | |
1023 | <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2014-11/msg00670.html>. | |
1024 | ||
1025 | *** ‘glib-or-gtk-build-system’ has been extended | |
1026 | ||
1027 | It now handles GIO and XDG themes, takes care of generating the icon cache, | |
1028 | and has a new #:glib-or-gtk-wrap-excluded-outputs parameter. | |
1029 | ||
1030 | *** ‘search-path-specification’ can now specify non-directory items | |
1031 | ||
1032 | For example, the ‘search-path-specification’ attached to libxml2 specifies a | |
1033 | file pattern, which allows all the ‘catalog.xml’ files to be added to the | |
1034 | ‘XML_CATALOG_FILES’ environment variable. | |
1035 | ||
1036 | *** (guix build syscalls) has more network-related procedures | |
1037 | ||
1038 | ‘set-network-interface-flags’, ‘set-network-interface-address’, | |
1039 | ‘network-interface-address’, and ‘configure-network-interface’ are ioctl | |
1040 | bindings used by network-handling dmd services. | |
1041 | ||
1042 | *** (guix monads) refactoring | |
1043 | ||
1044 | ‘%store-monad’ is now in (guix store) and is an alias for the new | |
1045 | ‘%state-monad’ provided by (guix monads). Monadic procedures dealing with the | |
1046 | store, with derivations, and with packages have been moved from (guix monads) | |
1047 | to (guix store), (guix derivations), and (guix packages). See “The Store | |
1048 | Monad” in the manual. | |
1049 | ||
1050 | *** (guix build utils) provides ‘parallel-job-count’ | |
1051 | ||
1052 | *** ‘wrap-program’ preserves the original argv[0] | |
1053 | ||
1054 | *** New (guix sets) module | |
1055 | ||
1056 | *** ‘define-record-type*’ now support “delayed” fields | |
1057 | ||
1058 | ** Noteworthy bug fixes | |
1059 | ||
1060 | *** X session is executed from a login shell (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19119>) | |
1061 | *** grub.cfg is now a garbage-collector root (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19160>) | |
1062 | *** Substituter progress report properly formatted | |
1063 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19313>) | |
1064 | *** Document permissions for /gnu/store (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19316>) | |
1065 | *** Make sure config.go is newer than config.scm | |
1066 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19317>) | |
1067 | *** Emacs knows where to find its GLib schemas (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19138>) | |
1068 | *** Adjust 'grub.cfg' to work on systems with a separate /boot | |
1069 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19220>) | |
1070 | *** Fix removal of next-to-last item in a profile | |
1071 | (<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2014-12/msg00292.html>) | |
1072 | *** Apply patches with "patch --force" (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19402>) | |
1073 | *** Extend ‘search-path-specification’ for libxml2-style use cases | |
1074 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18033>) | |
1075 | *** Search for patches under $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19364>) | |
1076 | *** Use executables from the target inputs in 'patch-shebangs' | |
1077 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18895>) | |
1078 | *** guix-daemon now automatically creates '…/profiles/per-user' | |

1094 | * Changes in 0.8 (since 0.7) |
1095 | ||
1096 | ** Package management | |
1097 | ||
1098 | *** New visual user interface in Emacs | |
1099 | ||
1100 | See “Emacs Interface” in the manual. | |
1101 | ||
1102 | *** New ‘guix environment’ command to produce development environment | |
1103 | ||
1104 | See “Invoking guix environment” in the manual. | |
1105 | ||
29934e02 | 1106 | *** The ‘guix import’ command has been extended and documented |
0c4b00d8 | 1107 | |
7b3f6a27 | 1108 | It can now import packages from pypi.python.org and from GNU. |
0c4b00d8 LC |
1109 | See “Invoking guix import” in the manual. |
1110 | ||
1111 | *** New ‘guix lint’ command, for use by Guix developers | |
1112 | ||
1113 | See “Invoking guix lint” in the manual. | |
1114 | ||
1115 | *** Packages can now be “grafted” with replacements of their dependencies | |
1116 | ||
1117 | See “Security Updates” in the manual. | |
1118 | ||
1119 | *** The distribution can be extended with ‘--load-path’ or $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH | |
1120 | ||
1121 | This allows users to maintain their own package definitions, and make them | |
1122 | visible to the various user interfaces. See “Package Modules” in the manual. | |
1123 | ||
1124 | *** ‘guix package’ better reports package upgrades | |
1125 | ||
1126 | *** ‘guix package’ has a new ‘--switch-generation’ option | |
1127 | ||
1128 | See “Invoking guix package” in the manual. | |
1129 | ||
1130 | *** ‘guix-daemon’ has a new ‘--substitute-urls’ option | |
1131 | ||
1132 | See “Invoking guix-daemon” in the manual. | |
1133 | ||
44941798 | 1134 | ** Distribution |
0c4b00d8 LC |
1135 | |
1136 | *** The stand-alone operating system now supports Linux mapped devices | |
1137 | ||
1138 | See “Mapped Devices” in the manual. | |
1139 | ||
1140 | *** New fields in ‘operating-system’ declarations, better documentation | |
1141 | ||
1142 | New fields include ‘hosts-file’, ‘mapped-devices’, and ‘swap-devices’. | |
1143 | See “operating-system Reference” in the manual. | |
1144 | ||
1145 | *** New services: ‘dhcp-client-service’, ‘bitlbee-service’, ‘ntp-service’ | |
1146 | ||
1147 | See “Services” in the manual. | |
1148 | ||
8ee0e719 LC |
1149 | *** Free firmware can be loaded |
1150 | ||
1151 | This notably enables support for some Atheros-based WiFi devices (ath9k-htc.) | |
1152 | See “operating-system Reference” in the manual. | |
1153 | ||
0c4b00d8 LC |
1154 | *** ‘grub-configuration’ declarations can now specify a theme |
1155 | ||
1156 | See “GRUB Configuration” in the manual. | |
1157 | ||
1158 | *** The ‘base-initrd’ now has a different signature | |
1159 | ||
1160 | Existing uses in ‘operating-system’ declarations need to be updated. See | |
1161 | “Initial RAM Disk” in the manual for details. | |
1162 | ||
1163 | *** eudev is now used by default, instead of an old udev release | |
1164 | ||
1165 | *** ‘guix system vm’ has a new ‘--full-boot’ option | |
1166 | ||
1167 | See “Invoking guix system” in the manual. | |
1168 | ||
1169 | *** The ‘file’ command is now part of the package build environment | |
1170 | ||
1171 | Autoconf-generated ‘configure’ scripts for packages using Libtool use ‘file’ | |
1172 | to determine the target ABI, notably on MIPS, hence this change. | |
1173 | ||

1236 | ** Programming interfaces |
1237 | ||
1238 | *** New ‘ruby-build-system’, for Ruby packages | |
1239 | ||
1240 | See “Build Systems” in the manual. | |
1241 | ||
1242 | *** New ‘glib-or-gtk-build-system’, for packages using GLib schemas | |
1243 | ||
1244 | See “Build Systems” in the manual. | |
1245 | ||
1246 | *** ‘gnu-build-system’ has a new #:substitutable? parameter | |
1247 | ||
1248 | This allows packagers to mark a package as requiring a local build, thus | |
1249 | preventing it from being substituted by a pre-built binary. | |
1250 | ||
1251 | *** ‘cmake-build-system’ has a new #:build-type parameter | |
1252 | ||
1253 | See “Build Systems” in the manual. | |
1254 | ||
1255 | *** The ‘supported-systems’ field of packages is used more consistently | |
1256 | ||
1257 | This allows packagers to prevent attempts to build a package on a given | |
1258 | architecture when that architecture is known not to be supported. The | |
1259 | ‘package-transitive-supported-systems’ procedure returns the intersection of | |
1260 | the systems supported by the given package and by its dependencies. | |
1261 | ||
1262 | *** The ‘wrap-program’ procedure can now be called multiple times | |
1263 | ||
1264 | *** New ‘graft-derivations’ and ‘package-grafts’ procedures | |
1265 | ||
1266 | They implement “grafts”, as described under “Security Updates” in the manual. | |
1267 | ||
1268 | *** New “bag” intermediate representation for use by build systems | |
1269 | ||
1270 | “Bags” are used internally as an intermediate representation between packages | |
1271 | and derivations. See “Build Systems” in the manual. | |
1272 | ||
1273 | *** New (guix monad-repl) module, for monadic interaction at the REPL | |
1274 | ||
1275 | See “The Store Monad” in the manual. | |
1276 | ||
1277 | *** New (guix build emacs-utils) module, to facilitate building Emacs packages | |
1278 | ||
1279 | *** New (guix tests) module, with tools used by the test suite | |
1280 | ||
1281 | *** The internal ‘guix-register’ command now deduplicates files in store items | |
1282 | ||
1283 | *** Several system modules moved from (guix build …) to (gnu build …) | |
1284 | ||
1285 | Also, the (gnu build linux-boot) module has been introduced, with code | |
1286 | typically used by initial RAM disks when booting on GNU/Linux-libre. | |
1287 | ||
1288 | *** (guix profiles) provides a representation of package transactions | |
1289 | ||
1290 | This factorizes code between ‘guix package’ and the Emacs user interface. | |
1291 | ||
8ee0e719 | 1292 | *** Bootstrapping packages moved to (gnu packages commencement) modules |
0c4b00d8 LC |
1293 | |
1294 | ** Bugs fixed | |
1295 | ||
1296 | *** ‘guix-daemon’ now really deduplicates store items by default | |
1297 | ||
1298 | Deduplication means that identical files found in /gnu/store are stored only | |
1299 | once, using hard links. This feature was wrongfully disabled, and is now | |
1300 | enabled by default. The former ‘--disable-store-optimization’ option has been | |
1301 | renamed to ‘--disable-deduplication’. | |
1302 | ||
1303 | *** ‘guix-daemon’ no longer uses ‘vfork’ | |
1304 | ||
1305 | This could cause problems with ancient Linux kernel. | |
1306 | ||
1307 | *** Fixed compilation of ‘gccgo’ (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18101>) | |
1308 | *** 'make clean' doesn't delete os-config.tmpl (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18243>) | |
1309 | *** Fix handling of periods by fill-paragraph (<http://bugs.gnu.org/17468>) | |
1310 | *** Produce a top-level Info 'dir' file (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18305>) | |
1311 | *** guix offload ignores unreachable machines (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18070>) | |
1312 | *** guix offload: Ignore EEXIST when registering a .drv as a GC root | |
1313 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18115>) | |
1314 | *** perl-tk: Build sequentially (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18262>) | |
1315 | *** download: Use the 'SERVER NAME' TLS extension when possible | |
1316 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18526>) | |
1317 | *** libdaemon: Add alternate source URLs (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18639>) | |
1318 | *** icu4c: Reinstate RUNPATH on shared libraries | |
1319 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18695>) | |
1320 | *** nss-mdns: Add alternate source URLs (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18704>) | |
1321 | *** download: Add "Accept: */*" to the HTTP headers | |
1322 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18768>) | |
1323 | *** guix-register: Do not attempt to create NIX_STORE_DIR | |
1324 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18689>) | |
1325 | *** Allow Linux-libre to find our 'modprobe' command | |
1326 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18525>) | |
1327 | *** man-pages: Build sequentially (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18701>) | |
1328 | *** Fix intermittent test failures involving GC (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18935>) | |
1329 | *** guix import: pypi: Gracefully handle non-existent packages | |
1330 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18831>) | |
1331 | *** Make sure the shared library has the '.so' extension | |
1332 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18521>) | |
1333 | *** pull: Use the build procedure provided by the newly-downloaded Guix. | |
1334 | (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18534>) | |
5c88ac53 | 1335 | *** WindowMaker no longer pollutes $PATH (<http://bugs.gnu.org/18698>) |

1341 | * Changes in 0.7 (since 0.6) |
1342 | ** Package management | |
508ea01e LC |
1343 | *** Binaries for mips64el-linux now available from hydra.gnu.org |
1344 | ||
1345 | These come in addition to the x86_64-linux and i686-linux binaries already | |
1346 | provided, thanks to our generous donor and friendly admins. See | |
1347 | “Substitutes” in the manual. | |
1348 | ||
dccc0b98 LC |
1349 | *** ‘guix package’ has a new ‘--show’ option |
1350 | *** ‘guix refresh’ has a new ‘--list-dependent’ option | |
02dd2a9c LC |
1351 | |
1352 | ** Programming interfaces | |
1353 | *** New (guix gexp) module, which implements “G-expressions” | |
1354 | ||
1355 | G-expressions are a new mechanism to embed build-side code in host-side | |
1356 | code. See “G-Expressions” in the manual. | |
1357 | ||
1358 | *** (gnu system) and related modules now use G-expressions | |
1359 | ||
1360 | This greatly simplifies code, and guarantees that build code carries | |
1361 | references to the packages or derivations it uses. | |
1362 | ||
1363 | *** ‘build-expression->derivation’ is deprecated in favor of G-expressions | |
1364 | *** The (gnu system) module has been largely augmented and factorized | |
1365 | *** New (guix build vm) module, support for virtual machine images | |
1366 | *** New (guix build activation) module, for “system activation” | |
1367 | *** New (guix build syscalls) module | |
1368 | *** New (guix build install) and module for whole system installation | |
1369 | *** New (gnu system install) module, for the installation system | |
1370 | *** New (gnu system file-systems) module, for ‘file-system’ declarations | |
1371 | *** New (gnu) module, which aggregates common (gnu …) modules | |
1372 | *** ‘service’ records now have an optional ‘activate’ field | |
1373 | ||
1374 | This allows services to specify code to run at system activation time. | |
1375 | ||
1376 | ** GNU distribution | |
1377 | *** An image to install the GNU system from a USB stick is provided | |
1378 | ||
1379 | This is the first time an installation image is provided. See “System | |
1380 | Installation” in the manual for details. This is work in progress as noted | |
1381 | in “Limitations”. Your feedback and help are welcome! | |
1382 | ||
1383 | *** Support for more parameters in ‘operating-system’ declarations | |
1384 | ||
1385 | Operating system declarations can now provide a list of file systems, a list | |
1386 | of setuid programs, bootloader options, and more. See “System Configuration” | |
1387 | in the manual. | |
1388 | ||
1389 | *** ‘guix system’ supports more actions | |
1390 | ||
1391 | Newly supported actions are ‘init’, ‘build’, ‘reconfigure’, and ‘disk-image’. | |
1392 | See “Invoking guix system” in the manual. | |
1393 | ||
1394 | *** User accounts and groups are created at system activation time | |
1395 | *** Virtual machine support uses para-virtualized devices | |
1396 | *** GCC package now has an additional ‘lib’ output, for run-time support libs | |
1397 | *** GLib package now has a separate “bin” output (<http://bugs.gnu.org/17853>) | |

1540 | * Changes in 0.5 (since 0.4) |
1541 | ** Package management | |
1542 | *** GNU package descriptions synchronized with the ‘gnumaint’ repository | |
1543 | ||
1544 | In addition to synopses, descriptions of GNU packages are now kept in sync | |
1545 | with the ‘gnumaint’ repository, which is the canonical place for GNU package | |
1546 | meta-data. | |
1547 | ||
1548 | ** Programming interfaces | |
1549 | *** Patches are now listed as part of ‘origin’ | |
1550 | ||
1551 | The ‘origin’ form supports two new fields: ‘patches’ (list of patches), and | |
1552 | ‘snippet’ (code snippet to modify the source.) These are applied when running | |
1553 | ‘guix build --source’. See “Defining Packages” in the manual. | |
1554 | ||
1555 | *** New (guix monads) monadic interface to operate on the store | |
1556 | ||
1557 | See “The Store Monad” in the manual. The (gnu system …) modules have been | |
1558 | rewritten to use this monadic interface. | |
1559 | ||
1560 | *** New (guix profiles) module | |
1561 | ||
1562 | It provides an API for dealing with profiles, as with the ‘guix package’ | |
1563 | command. | |
1564 | ||
1565 | *** New (gnu system) module | |
1566 | ||
4a8c5617 AE |
1567 | This module provides a generic way to describe the system’s configuration, |
1568 | and to instantiate it, regardless of the final medium (QEMU image, etc.) | |
a043ac04 LC |
1569 | See “System Configuration” in the manual. |
1570 | ||
1571 | This is work in progress. Send feedback to guix-devel@gnu.org! | |
1572 | ||
1573 | *** ‘build-expression->derivation’ uses more parameters | |
1574 | ||
1575 | Some positional parameters have been changed to keyword parameters. | |
1576 | See “Derivations” in the manual. | |
1577 | ||
1578 | ** GNU distribution | |
1579 | *** New port to the Loongson MIPS64 processors, n32 ABI (‘mips64el-linux’) | |
1580 | ||
4a8c5617 | 1581 | Bootstrap binaries have been built for that architecture, and several |
a043ac04 LC |
1582 | Loongson-specific patches not yet available upstream have been applied to core |
1583 | packages. See “GNU Distribution” and “Porting” in the manual. | |
1584 | ||
1585 | Pre-built binaries are not yet available via hydra.gnu.org, so Guix will | |
4a8c5617 | 1586 | build from source on this platform. |

a043ac04 LC |
1630 | |
1631 | Previously, the build environment was not cleared in between ‘compile-file’ | |

1633 | ||

8f37bf62 LC |
1642 | * Changes in 0.4 (since 0.3) |
1643 | ||
1644 | ** Package management | |
1645 | ||
1646 | *** New ‘--list-generations’ and ‘--delete-generations’ options | |
1647 | ||
1648 | The ‘guix package’ command has these two new options, which make it easier to | |
1649 | deal with a profile’s generation. See “Invoking guix package” in the manual. | |
1650 | ||
1651 | *** New ‘guix-register’ program | |
1652 | ||
1653 | This program allows the meta-data of a new store to be initialized, by | |
1654 | copying info from an existing store. It is mostly an internal tool. | |
1655 | ||
1656 | ** Programming interfaces | |
1657 | ||
1658 | *** New API to bootstrap Autotools-based packages | |
1659 | ||
1660 | The (guix build-system gnu) has a new ‘dist-package’ procedure that takes a | |
1661 | package object and source directory, and returns a new package object that | |
1662 | runs ‘./bootstrap && make dist’ or anything similar. | |
1663 | ||
1664 | *** ‘derivation’ and related procedures have a #:references-graphs parameter | |
1665 | ||
1666 | This parameter instructs the build daemon to populate the derivation’s build | |
1667 | tree with files containing the list of references of the given store files. | |
1668 | This is useful to write code that copies a packages and all its dependencies | |
1669 | to another storage device, such as a QEMU disk image. | |
1670 | ||
1671 | *** Extended API to build a GNU system virtual machine image | |
1672 | ||
1673 | The (gnu system vm) module has been augmented in many ways: the ‘qemu-image’ | |
1674 | procedure can now populate and initialize the image’s store; the new | |
1675 | ‘system-qemu-image’ procedure returns a QEMU image that runs dmd as its init | |
1676 | system, has ‘login’ running on several consoles, has a set of installed | |
1677 | packages, and where Guix can be used. | |
1678 | ||
1679 | New (gnu system …) modules have been added to handle the configuration of the | |
1680 | various parts of a GNU/Linux system. For instance, (gnu system dmd) provides | |
1681 | support for instantiating dmd services; (gnu system linux) helps with Linux | |
1682 | PAM configuration; and so on. | |
1683 | ||
1684 | *** <derivation> objects supersede .drv file names in the API | |
1685 | ||
1686 | ‘derivation’ and similar procedures no longer return two values (a | |
1687 | <derivation> and a .drv file name); they now return a single value, which is | |
1688 | a <derivation> object. The <derivation> object embeds the corresponding .drv | |
1689 | file name. See “Derivations” in the manual for details. | |

1715 | *** Fontconfig font search path made more convenient | |
1716 | ||
1717 | Fontconfig, the library used by many graphical applications, such as those | |
1718 | based on GTK+, now knows where to find the default set of fonts. Additional | |
1719 | fonts installed in the user profile are automatically picked up. | |
1720 | ||
1721 | *** More GUI applications | |
1722 | ||
1723 | The ‘emacs’ and ‘racket’ packages are now linked against GTK+. New GTK+ | |
1724 | applications have been added (see above.) | |
1725 | ||
1726 | *** Packaging guidelines | |
1727 | ||
1728 | The documentation of packaging guidelines has been augmented. See the manual | |
1729 | under “GNU Distribution”. | |
1730 | ||
1731 | *** Support for Python 3 along with Python 2 | |
1732 | ||
1733 | Python 3 has been added to the distribution, and Python packages that support | |
1734 | it are now built for both Python 2 and Python 3. See the “Python Modules” | |
1735 | section of the manual for details. | |

1753 | |
1754 | *** Cross-compilation support | |
1755 | ||
1756 | Guix can now cross-build packages. On the command-line, this is achieved with | |
1757 | the new ‘--target’ command-line option of ‘guix build’. At the Scheme level, | |
1758 | the guts of this is the ‘package-cross-derivation’ procedure. Core packages | |
1759 | of the distribution can already be cross-compiled. See the manual for | |
1760 | details. | |
1761 | ||
d1495831 LC |
1762 | *** New ‘--max-silent-time’ option for “guix build” and “guix package” |
1763 | ||
1764 | See the manual for details. | |
1765 | ||
bdbb6fbb LC |
1766 | *** New ‘--fallback’ option for “guix build” and “guix package” |
1767 | ||
1768 | This option instructs to fall back to local builds when the substituter fails | |
1769 | to download a substitute. | |
1770 | ||
8e59fdd5 LC |
1771 | *** New ‘--requisites’ option for “guix gc” |

1782 | ||
1783 | See the manual for details. | |
1784 | ||
1785 | *** New ‘%current-target-system’ SRFI-39 parameter | |
1786 | ||
1787 | This parameter is like ‘%current-system’, but for cross-compilation. It | |
1788 | allows code in package definitions (such as in the ‘arguments’ field) to know | |
1789 | whether it is being cross-compiled, and what the target system is. | |
1790 | ||
42300254 LC |
1791 | *** New (guix hash) module; new ‘open-sha256-port’ and ‘sha256-port’ procedures |
1792 | ||
1793 | This improves performance of SHA256 computations. | |

1813 | *** Binary packages now available for i686-linux | |
1814 | ||
1815 | The build farm at http://hydra.gnu.org now provides 32-bit GNU/Linux binaries | |
1816 | (i686-linux), in addition to the x86_64-linux binaries. Both can be | |
1817 | transparently used as substitutes for local builds on these platforms. | |
1818 | ||
1819 | *** Debug info packages | |
1820 | ||
1821 | Some packages now have a “debug” output containing debugging information. The | |
1822 | “debug” output can be used by GDB, and can be installed separately from the | |
1823 | other outputs of the package. See “Installing Debugging Files” in the manual. | |
1824 | ||
1825 | *** Bootstrap binaries can be cross-compiled | |
1826 | ||
1827 | The distribution can now be ported to new architectures (currently | |
1828 | GNU/Linux-only) by cross-compiling the “bootstrap binaries”. See “Porting” | |
1829 | in the manual. | |
1830 | ||
1831 | *** Bootstrapping documented | |
1832 | ||
1833 | See “Bootstrapping” in the manual, for information on how the GNU | |
1834 | distribution builds “from scratch”. | |

1842 | *** Binary substituter multi-threading and pipe issues fixed | |
1843 | ||
1844 | These could lead to random substituter crashes while substituting a binary. | |
1845 | See commits 0332386 and 101d9f3 for details. | |

1847 | *** Binary substituter gracefully handles lack of network connectivity |
1848 | ||
16357e8c LC |
1849 | *** Daemon properly handles rebuilds of multiple-output derivations |
1850 | ||
1851 | Previously it would fail when rebuilding a multiple-output derivation when | |
1852 | some (but not all) of its outputs were already present. See | |
1853 | http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2013-06/msg00038.html and | |
1854 | https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/122 . | |
1855 | ||
5939006b LC |
1856 | *** ‘guix package -i foo:out’ no longer removes other outputs of ‘foo’ |
1857 | ||
1858 | Previously only the ‘out’ output of package ‘foo’ would be kept in the | |
1859 | profile. | |
1860 | ||
3253830d LC |
1861 | *** Replacement (srfi srfi-37) provided if the user’s one is broken |
1862 | ||
1863 | When the user’s (srfi srfi-37) is affected by http://bugs.gnu.org/13176 (Guile | |
1864 | < 2.0.9), a replacement with the bug fix is provided. This bug would affect | |
1865 | command-line argument processing in some cases. | |

1869 | ** Package management |
1870 | ||
1871 | *** Guix commands are now sub-commands of the “guix” program | |
1872 | ||
1873 | Instead of typing “guix-package”, one now has to type “guix package”, and so | |
1874 | on. This has allowed us to homogenize the user interface and initial program | |
1875 | setup, and to allow commands to be upgradable through “guix pull”. | |
1876 | ||
06504acb LC |
1877 | *** New “guix package --upgrade” option |
1878 | ||
1879 | As the name implies, this option atomically upgrades all the packages | |
e3729544 LC |
1880 | installed in a profile or the set of packages matching a given regexp. |
1881 | See “Invoking guix package” in the manual. | |
06504acb | 1882 | |
0f241da2 LC |
1883 | *** New “guix package --search” option |
1884 | ||
1885 | Performs a full text search in package synopses and descriptions, and returns | |
1886 | the matching packages in recutils format. See “Invoking guix package” in the | |
1887 | manual, for details. | |
1888 | ||
4056b828 LC |
1889 | *** New “guix pull” command |
1890 | ||
1891 | The command pulls the latest version of Guix–both the package management | |
1892 | modules and the distribution. See the manual for details. | |
1893 | ||
1894 | *** New binary substituter | |
1895 | ||
1896 | The “substituter” mechanism allows pre-built binaries to be transparently | |
1897 | downloaded instead of performing a build locally. Currently binaries are | |
0f241da2 LC |
1898 | available for x86_64 Linux-based GNU systems from http://hydra.gnu.org. The |
1899 | distribution is continuously built and binaries are made available from there. | |
1900 | ||
1901 | See http://hydra.gnu.org/jobset/gnu/master under “Job status” for the list of | |
1902 | available binary packages. | |
4056b828 LC |
1903 | |
1904 | *** New “guix refresh” command | |
1905 | ||
1906 | The command is used by Guix maintainers. It automatically updates the | |
1907 | distribution to the latest upstream releases of GNU software. | |
1908 | ||
1909 | *** New “guix hash” command | |
1910 | ||
1911 | Convenience command to compute the hash of a file. See the manual for | |
1912 | details. | |
1913 | ||
0f241da2 | 1914 | *** Nix daemon code updated |
4056b828 | 1915 | |
0f241da2 LC |
1916 | The daemon code from Nix, used by the ‘guix-daemon’ command, has been updated |
1917 | to current Nix ‘master’. | |
4056b828 LC |
1918 | |
1919 | ** Programming interfaces | |
1920 | ||
0f241da2 LC |
1921 | *** (guix download) now supports HTTPS, using GnuTLS |
1922 | ||
1923 | It allows package source tarballs to be retrieved over HTTPS. | |
1924 | ||
4056b828 LC |
1925 | *** New ‘native-search-path’ and ‘search-path’ package fields |
1926 | ||
1927 | Packages can define in their ‘native-search-path’ field environment variables | |
1928 | that define search paths and need to be set for proper functioning of the | |
1929 | package. For instance, GCC has ‘CPATH’ and ‘LIBRARY_PATH’ in its | |
1930 | ‘native-search-path’, Perl has ‘PERL5LIB’, Python has ‘PYTHONPATH’, etc. | |
1931 | These environment variables are automatically set when building a package that | |
1932 | uses one of these. | |
1933 | ||
1934 | *** Package inputs can be a function of the target system type | |
1935 | ||
1936 | The ‘inputs’ field of a package can now be conditional on the value of | |
1937 | (%current-system). This is useful for packages that take system-dependent | |
1938 | tarballs as inputs, such as GNU/MIT Scheme. | |
1939 | ||
1940 | *** New build systems | |
1941 | ||
1942 | The ‘perl-build-system’, ‘python-build-system’, and ‘cmake-build-system’ have | |
1943 | been added. They implement the standard build systems for Perl, Python, and | |
1944 | CMake packages. | |
1945 | ||
47d18810 LC |
1946 | *** Tools to build Linux initrds, QEMU images, and more |
1947 | ||
1948 | The (gnu packages linux-initrd) module provides a procedure to build a Linux | |
1949 | initrd (“initial RAM disk”). The initrd embeds Guile, which is used to | |
1950 | evaluate the given expression. The example below returns an initrd that | |
1951 | mounts the /proc file system and starts a REPL: | |
1952 | ||
1953 | (expression->initrd | |
1954 | '(begin | |
1955 | (mkdir "/proc") | |
1956 | (mount "none" "/proc" "proc") | |
1957 | ((@ (system repl repl) start-repl)))) | |
1958 | ||
1959 | More examples in the linux-initrd.scm file. | |
1960 | ||
1961 | Experimental interfaces to produce and use QEMU images are provided by the | |
1962 | (gnu system vm) module. For instance, the | |
1963 | ‘expression->derivation-in-linux-vm’ evaluates the given Scheme expression in | |
1964 | a QEMU virtual machine running the Linux kernel and Guile. | |
1965 | ||
4056b828 LC |
1966 | ** GNU distribution |
1967 | ||
1968 | Many updates and additions have been made to the distribution. Here are the | |
1969 | highlights. | |
1970 | ||
1971 | *** Major updates | |
1972 | ||
1973 | GCC 4.7.3 (the default) and GCC 4.8.0, Binutils 2.23.2, Guile 2.0.9, | |
1974 | Coreutils 8.20, GDB 7.6, Texinfo 5.1. | |
