Julia: fix current patches, upgrade to 1.4.1 |
|

Hello guix!
In the following patches I:
- fixed current julia: I don't know how, the patch-url is missing
".patch" at the end, leading to a 404. Don't know how it can build
right now
- fixed the julia-SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH-mtime.patch: It's now a meta-patch,
that creates the right patch file, so the current julia version is not
patched, and precompile cache of packages installed with guix is
broken. Still no julia-package is in guix, that's why it went
unnoticed
- Add libwhich (I added it to julia.scm but probably there's a better
place for it)
- Update julia to latest release, v1.4.1. I was finally able to
unbundle the last pieces of bundled software (libwhich). Now julia
is based on llvm-8 (previously on llvm-6) and I measuread a speedup of
~17x on precompile times
- Add the first julia package, julia-compat. If everything is fine, I'll
then submit a big series of packages
Feedback welcome!
Nicolò

Ouch, indeed. It went fine though!
I pushed the whole series. Note that I modified the patch-adjusting
patch to preserve the comment that was originally there.
Nitpick: for future patches, I recommend avoiding “Fix …” in the subject
line, unless (1) there’s a bug report and the commit log links to it, or
(2) the commit log explains what’s being fixed. (It wasn’t clear to me
whether the first two patches were “fixing” something that didn’t work
at all, and to what extent.)
Anyway, thumbs up for the upgrade! \o/
Thanks,
Ludo’.
