A little more hacking leads me to the conclusion that (probably with
version 4 but it's not exactly clear from the changelog) procps has made
some significant changes to it's API.  So, unless igt-gpu-tools (and
probably others) are fixed upstream they remain broken.  Fixes through
simple regex-magic in our build-phases might be possible, but I am not
confident enough in the matter to guarantee that the package would not
just build but be broken in a more specific manner.

Is there an easy way to check which dependents of procps are actually
broken currently?  Or is it really just igt-gpu-tools?

There's two ways to go (I'd be happy for some input and volunteer to do
the actual leg-work):
 1. Add an additional procps-3 package with the older API to fix the
 broken packages.
 2. Leave it as-is and wait for an upstream change of the currently
 broken packages.

You could test it as a graft, then dependents won't get rebuilt.  If the
public ABI exported by the package doesn't change, it Should Be Fine TM.

Hi

Trying to upgrade a somewhat outdated system (from March 23) I noticed
igt-gpu-tools failed to build.  Investigating a bit the build fails due
to some "proc/readproc.h" include missing.  I think i managed to fix the
failure in procps's Makefile, but testing the patched build results in a
rather huge rebuild.  `guix refresh -l procps` results in 5328
packages.  Are there any other approaches one could take to a) fix the
broken package without b) triggering a world-rebuild?

I'm not sure if this is an upstream bug and whether other packages are
affected, neither do I know whether the other header files that aren't
being copied to the install dir should be.


Thanks for your input in advance!  I'll update this issue with a patch
as soon as I manage to verify that my attempt actually works.

gabber
