This session will be hosted by Ludovic Courtès on this link.
To give an idea of what a package is, we usually start by showing a [simple case] that is immediately understandable and reassuring. In reality, it is not uncommon for things to get complicated.
In this session, we will see how to adapt a package definition to specify configuration options or build flags, change [build phases], manipulate source or installed files, reference package dependencies. We will find again some of the notions discussed in the introduction to the language Scheme of the session of November 29, 2022, for your greatest pleasure.
Bonus: you are welcome to bring your own packaging concerns to discuss them! At the end of this session, 15 minutes will be devoted to your various questions including on topics other than the one presented in this café.
You will find all the information concerning the “Cafés Guix” here.
