Subject: btrfs-progs fails to cross-compile
Date: Sat, 21 May 2022 21:02:00 +0300

I can build it natively on aarch64 or x86_64. Only cross-compilation fails
To reproduce, run (on x86_64 host)
guix build btrfs-progs --target=aarch64-linux-gnu
Output:

configure: error: Package requirements (libudev) were not met:

No package 'libudev' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBUDEV_CFLAGS
and LIBUDEV_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Given that 'eudev' appears in the references, it looks like 'eudev'
needs to be moved from native-inputs to inputs (apparently it's not
only for tests!) in the package definition of btrfs-progs.

Greetings,
Maxime.

Pavel,

Thanks.  This was due to

- a bogus eudev native-input that should have been regular,
- broken Python support somewhere upstream.

Handily, said Python support was never actually used by Guix, so 
we can just ignore it and --disable-python.

Kind regards,

T G-R
