This bump will includes a couple of commits which improve the
reproducibility of the mingw-w64 toolchain. Most of which came from
debian. They will be upstreamed as upstream Guix release timeline
allows.
- Add "--no-insert-timestamp" LDFLAG for x86_64-w64-mingw32 builds
"The option --no-insert-timestamp can be used to insert a zero value for
the timestamp, this ensuring that binaries produced from identical
sources will compare identically." - ld(1)
- Set "SetDateSave off" in NSIS script
From https://nsis.sourceforge.io/Docs/Chapter4.html#flags
"This command sets the file date/time saving flag which is used by the
File command to determine whether or not to save the last write date and
time of the file, so that it can be restored on installation. Valid
flags are 'on' and 'off'. 'on' is the default."
- Add commented out NSIS options for reproducibility debugging in NSIS
script
- Make ZIPs deterministic by reseting file modification times to
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH using touch(1) (Reference:
https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/archives/)
Previously, Guix would produce a gcc which did not know to use the SSP
function from glibc, and required a gcc make flag for it to do so, in my
attempt to fix it upstream I realized that this is no longer the case.
This can be verified by performing a Guix build and doing
readelf -s ... | grep __stack_chk
to check that symbols are coming from glibc, and doing
readelf -d ... | grep NEEDED | grep ssp
to see that libssp.so is not being depended on
- store_path() previously only worked for cross compilation packages, we
remove this assumption here
- Add CROSS_GCC_LIB variable which points to where gcc libs/headers are
located
- Add gcc libs/headers to our CROSS_*_PATH environment variables
- Check that all directories in CROSS_*_PATH are sane
- Clearer and more accurate prose
- Pin `guix pull' to commit rather than branch
- Just use `use-module' instead of `define-module'
- Use `bash-minimal' instead of `bash'
- Remove unneeded `tcsh' from manifest
- Explicitly use `python-3.7'
- Add comments about how {native,cross}-toolchains are produced and
why
