| 2022-01-11 | shell: Cache profiles even when using package specs....This enables profile caching not just when '-m' or '-f' is used, but
also when package specs are passed on the command line, as in:
guix shell -D guix git
It also changes profile cache keys to include the system type, which was
previously ignored.
* guix/scripts/shell.scm (options-with-caching)[single-file-for-caching]:
Remove.
Call 'profile-cached-gc-root' instead; adjust to accept two values.
(profile-cache-primary-key): New procedure.
(profile-cache-key): Remove.
(profile-file-cache-key, profile-spec-cache-key): New procedures.
(profile-cached-gc-root): Rewrite to include functionality formally in
'single-file-for-caching', but extend to handle package specs.
* gnu/packages.scm (cache-is-authoritative?): Export.
* guix/transformations.scm (transformation-option-key?): New procedure.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix shell): Move '--rebuild-cache'
documentation to the bottom, just above '--root'. Explain caching and
how these two options relate to that.

[variables]: New variables.
[expand-cache]: Change to take two arguments.
[exp]: Fold over VARIABLES.

| 2020-01-17 | packages: Prevent inlining of 'find-best-packages-by-name'....This allows 'tests/packages.scm' to mock it.
* gnu/packages.scm (find-best-packages-by-name): Set! it at the top
level to prevent it from being inline on Guile 3.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2020-01-06 | Adjust module autoloads....In Guile < 2.9.7, autoloading a module would give you access to all its
bindings. In future versions, autoloading a module gives access only to
the listed bindings, as per #:select (see <https://bugs.gnu.org/38895>).
This commit adjusts autoloads to the new semantics, allowing Guix to be
built with Guile 2.9.7/2.9.8.
* guix/build/download.scm <top level>: Remove call to 'module-autoload!'.
(load-gnutls): New procedure.

| 2019-10-14 | packages: 'fold-available-packages' uses 'supported-package?'....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/37748>.
Reported by Marius Bakke <mbakke@fastmail.com>.
This is a followup to d2d63e20d5b981009b61bf416b4d7b516e8f1f34.
* gnu/packages.scm (fold-available-packages): Use 'supported-package?'
instead of (member ... (package-supported-systems ...)) to match what
'generate-package-cache' does.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2019-09-06 | packages: 'generate-package-cache' uses 'supported-package?'....* gnu/packages.scm (generate-package-cache): Use 'supported-package?'
instead of 'package-supported-systems'.

| 2019-06-27 | Merge branch 'master' into core-updates | Ludovic Courtès |
| 2019-06-27 | packages: 'specification->package+output' distinguishes "no output specified"....Until now the caller couldn't tell the different between a spec like
"foo:out" and one like "foo". This change allows users to distinguish
between these two cases.
* gnu/packages.scm (specification->package+output): Disable output
membership test when OUTPUT = #f and SUB-DRV = #f.
* tests/packages.scm ("specification->package+output")
("specification->package+output invalid output")
("specification->package+output no default output")
("specification->package+output invalid output, no default"): New tests.
| Ludovic Courtès |

| 2019-03-28 | packages: Reintroduce 'find-newest-available-packages'....This is a followup to e2a903c807ccacec5925f197ce26f626060e1953.
* gnu/packages.scm (find-newest-available-packages): New procedure.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2019-03-14 | Merge branch 'staging' into core-updates | Marius Bakke |
| 2019-03-11 | packages: Add the channel .go files to the search path....Until now %LOAD-COMPILED-PATH would wrongfully contain:
CHANNEL/share/guile/site/X.Y
for each channel, thereby ignoring all the .go files of channels. This
fixes it so that %LOAD-COMPILED-PATH instead contains:
CHANNEL/lib/guile/X.Y/site-ccache
* guix/describe.scm (current-channel-entries): New procedure.
(package-path-entries): Change to return the %LOAD-COMPILED-PATH entries
as a second value.
* gnu/packages.scm (%package-module-path): Expect two values from
'package-path-entries' and augment %LOAD-COMPILED-PATH accordingly.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2019-02-20 | Merge branch 'staging' into core-updates | Marius Bakke |
| 2019-02-16 | packages: Remove duplicates from package cache....Previously the same package could appear several times if several
variables were bound to it, as is notably the case for "python"
currently. This, in turn, would lead to obnoxious "ambiguous package
specification" messages.
* gnu/packages.scm (generate-package-cache)[expand-cache]: Change RESULT
to RESULT+SEEN and adjust accordingly.
Call 'first' on the result of 'fold-module-public-variables*'.
* tests/packages.scm ("fold-available-packages with/without cache"):
Check for lack of duplicates in FROM-CACHE.

* guix/scripts/package.scm (process-query): Use it instead of
'fold-packages'.
* tests/packages.scm ("fold-available-packages with/without cache"):
New test.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2019-01-15 | edit: Use 'specification->location' to read information from the cache....That way 'guix edit' doesn't need to load any package module.
* gnu/packages.scm (find-package-locations, specification->location):
New procedures.
* guix/scripts/edit.scm (package->location-specification): Rename to...
(location->location-specification): ... this. Expect a location object
instead of a package.
(guix-edit): Use 'specification->location' instead of
'specification->package'.
* tests/packages.scm ("find-package-locations")
("find-package-locations with cache")
("specification->location"): New tests.
| Ludovic Courtès |

(find-packages-by-name): Rename to...

'cache-is-authoritative?' returns true.
* tests/packages.scm ("find-packages-by-name + version, with cache")
("find-packages-by-name with cache"): New tests.
* guix/channels.scm (package-cache-file): New procedure.
(%channel-profile-hooks): New variable.
(channel-instances->derivation): Use it in #:hooks.
* guix/scripts/package.scm (build-and-use-profile): Add #:hooks and
honor it.
* guix/scripts/pull.scm (build-and-install): Pass #:hooks to
UPDATE-PROFILE.

| 2019-01-15 | packages: Remove 'find-newest-available-packages'....Since commit 9ffc1c00e55eb7931846dbb3fafcf54716fff57c,
'find-newest-available-packages' and 'find-packages-by-name' were both
building a vhash mapping package names to packages. This factorizes
this bit, also reducing I/O, CPU, and memory usage.
* gnu/packages.scm (find-best-packages-by-name): Remove.
(find-best-packages-by-name): Use 'find-packages-by-name' instead of
'find-newest-available-packages'.
| Ludovic Courtès |

* gnu/local.mk (bootstrap_x86_64_linuxdir)
(dist_bootstrap_x86_64_linux_DATA): Remove.
* gnu/packages.scm (search-bootstrap-binary): When SYSTEM is
"x86_64-linux", use "i686-linux" instead.
| Ludovic Courtès |

* Makefile.am (MODULES): Add it.
* gnu/packages.scm (%default-package-module-path): New variable.
(%package-module-path): Honor 'package-path-entries'.
* build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (main): Use %DEFAULT-PACKAGE-MODULE-PATH
instead of (last (%package-module-path)).
| Ludovic Courtès |

Reported by Mark H Weaver <mhw@netris.org>.
* gnu/packages.scm (find-packages-by-name): Use 'version-prefix?'
instead of 'string-prefix?'.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2018-04-08 | discovery: Remove dependency on (guix ui)....This reduces the closure of (guix discovery) from 28 to 8 modules.
* guix/discovery.scm (scheme-files): Use 'format' instead of 'warning'.
(scheme-modules): Add #:warn parameter. Use it instead of
'warn-about-load-error'.
