(%store): New variable. (%standard-inputs): Remove. (gnu-build): New `implicit-inputs?' keyword parameter. Use it to choose whether to use `(standard-inputs SYSTEM)' or the empty list. * distro/base.scm (guile-2.0): Remove dependency on XZ, which is now implicit. (%bootstrap-inputs, gcc-boot0, binutils-boot0, linux-headers-boot0, %boot1-inputs, glibc-final, %boot2-inputs, m4-boot2, gmp-boot2, mpfr-boot2, mpc-boot2, %boot3-inputs, gcc-final, %boot4-inputs, %final-inputs): New variables.
packages: Add `package-transitive-propagated-inputs'. * guix/packages.scm (transitive-inputs): New procedure. (package-transitive-inputs): Rewrite in terms of `transitive-inputs'. (package-transitive-propagated-inputs): New procedure.
packages: Cache the result of `package-derivation'. * guix/packages.scm (%derivation-cache): New variable. (cache, cached-derivation): New procedures. (package-derivation): Use them.
distro: recutils: Allow builds with glibc 2.16+. * distro/base.scm (recutils): Apply. `diffutils-gets-undeclared.patch'.
distro: glibc: Propagate Linux headers. * distro/base.scm (glibc): Move LINUX-HEADERS from `native-inputs' to `propagated-inputs'. Remove unnecessary `_' in /bin/pwd substitution.
distro: diffutils: Allow builds with glibc 2.16+. * distro/patches/diffutils-gets-undeclared.patch: New file. * Makefile.am (dist_patch_DATA): Add it. * distro/base.scm (diffutils): Apply. `diffutils-gets-undeclared.patch'.
distro: tar: Allow builds with glibc 2.16+. * distro/patches/tar-gets-undeclared.patch: New file. * Makefile.am (dist_patch_DATA): Add it. * distro/base.scm (tar): Apply. `tar-gets-undeclared.patch'.
packages: Add a printer for <package>. * guix/packages.scm (<package>): Add record printer.
Optimize `write-derivation' and `derivation-path->output-path'. * guix/derivations.scm (write-derivation): Explicitly use `simple-format'. (derivation-path->output-path): Memoize.
Optimize `store-path?'. * guix/store.scm (store-path?): Check with `string-prefix?' instead of a regexp.
build-system/gnu: Really apply patches. * guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm (patch): Use `--input FILE', not just `FILE'.
utils: Change `substitute*' to allow iteration over several matches. * guix/build/utils.scm (substitute): Do not pass the OUT to PROC; use `list-matches' instead of `regexp-exec' and pass a list of matches to PROC. Expect PROC to return a string, and output that. Fold over RX+PROC in order. Use `(read-line p 'concat)' to include the trailing delimiter in LINE. (substitute*): Produce code to iterate over the matches, and return a string, which includes anything from the original line that's in between matches. * distro/base.scm (gcc-4.7, glibc): Adjust accordingly: remove use of (ice-9 regex) and `regexp-substitute/global'; return a string.
distro: m4: Add patch to allow builds with glibc 2.16+. * distro/base.scm (m4): Use `m4-gets-undeclared.patch'. * distro/patches/m4-gets-undeclared.patch: New file. * Makefile.am (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
Add a `guile-for-build' parameter to `build-expression->derivation'. * guix/derivations.scm (%guile-for-build): Use `nixpkgs-derivation*' instead of `nixpkgs-derivation'. (build-expression->derivation): New `guile-for-build' keyword parameter. Use it.
Add an `env-vars' keyword parameter to `build-expression->derivation'. * guix/derivations.scm (build-expression->derivation): New `env-vars' keyword parameter; default to '(). Use it.
build-system/gnu: Add `path-exclusions' parameter. * guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm (set-paths): Add new `path-exclusions' parameter; honor it. * guix/build-system/gnu.scm (gnu-build): New `path-exclusions' keyword parameter; pass it to BUILDER. * distro/base.scm (gcc-4.7): Exclude "libc" from $LIBRARY_PATH.
distro: gcc: Allow `libstdc++' to be found. * distro/base.scm (gcc-4.7): Add `-rpath' arguments to `LIB_SPEC' to allow `libstdc++' to be found by users.
distro: gcc: Pass #:strip-binaries?. * distro/base.scm (gcc-4.7): Pass #:strip-binaries?.
