[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hello,

After much time spent trying to fix/update python-nautilus failing on core-updates-frozen, I realized this is not actually a package needed by anything in Guix. Packages actually wanted nautilus-python for integration with the nautilus file manager, not this one: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus-python

Since the package is unused by other packages then, and dates from 2016 (perhaps inactive), I've gone ahead and removed it. This should fix (or help fix) the related builds failing on core-updates-frozen.

I've tested that one of the packages that have this as an input, syncthing-gtk, builds and runs without it. I have not tried the others but have checked upstream listed nautilus-python as what they wanted which is a different package.

I have a WIP patch that added some python packages that were needed to update python-nautilus, which I'll send as a bug report in case it is helpful to someone later.

Thanks,
John

Rather than open a bug report for a soon-to-be-removed package, I'm attaching the diff here. Please do not apply it.

I added a few packages that were needed as I made changes and updates, in case this is useful to someone down the line. I also did a hacky workaround of python-nautilus having some template files getting compiled that probably should be skipped. Copying them to /tmp and back afterward was probably not how we should do it, but again, in case someone wants to revive this package. I should note that build failure was new on core-updates-frozen and this diff fails on the sanity-check.

Again, the actual patch is in the first message, this is just a diff in case someone wants to revive python-nautilus (though check again, probably want nautilus-python from Gnome).

Great, thanks! That was the last piece of core-updates-frozen for my system (other than Wine needing i686 dependencies). A little slower on the sprint, but looks like we're getting there now.
