Bug#850644: #850644: RFP: Guix in Debian
Hello,
Vagrant Cascadian <vagrant@debian.org> skribis:
> It still needs a way to get the bootstrap binaries (bash, mkdir, tar and
> xz) from Guix; right now they're binaries shipped in the source!
> Ludovic Courtès worked on a patch that would in theory download those at
> run-time, but that is not yet working...
On the ‘core-updates’ branch, these four files are now downloaded as
needed (they are “fixed-output derivations” at the bottom of the
dependency graph):
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?h=core-updates&id=836a85da0e8609d40716581be00802ee43463038
The binaries are gone from that branch.
It may be weeks before it’s merged to master, but we’re making progress!
Ludo’.
