From 1d4ab335b22a93e01c2eb1eb3e93fc6534157040 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ludovic Courtès Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 22:40:59 +0200 Subject: self: Use a 'guile' that doesn't complain about locales. Since commit ba48895899a117d6ace2209c3f54411a4a989133, selected UTF-8 locales are bundled. However, because 'guix-command' is itself a Guile script, users would still see Guile's warning, particularly on foreign distros: $ LC_ALL=sdf guix foo guile: warning: failed to install locale hint: Consider installing the `glibc-utf8-locales' [...] User commands would print that warning, but more importantly, each invocation of 'guix substitute' would print it, even though 'guix-daemon.service' explicitly chooses "en_US.utf8", which is in 'glibc-utf8-locales'. This leads to confusion since users would keep seeing this message unless/until they realize they also need to install 'glibc-utf8-locales' in root's profile. This patch gets rid of "guile: warning: ..." for a guix-pulled 'guix' command. * guix/self.scm (specification->package): Add "gcc-toolchain". (quiet-guile): New procedure. (guix-command): Use it. * gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c: New file. * Makefile.am (AUX_FILES): Add it. --- gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 46 insertions(+) create mode 100644 gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c (limited to 'gnu/packages/aux-files') diff --git a/gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c b/gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..886ede2846 --- /dev/null +++ b/gnu/packages/aux-files/guile-launcher.c @@ -0,0 +1,46 @@ +/* GNU Guix --- Functional package management for GNU + Copyright 1996-1997,2000-2001,2006,2008,2011,2013,2018 + Free Software Foundation, Inc. + Copyright (C) 2020 Ludovic Courtès + + This file is part of GNU Guix. + + GNU Guix is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it + under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or (at + your option) any later version. + + GNU Guix is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but + WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
