Hi, I think the smithforth package is nice addition to Guix. However, if I run the command to get the source...

``` guix build -S smithforth
/gnu/store/4w4v7zv4vif2k55g9srmv57fg5icpl94-SForth220711dmp.txt
```

...I only get the annotated header/opcode file. However, the forth system provided in the binary includes also the words defined here:

{https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/system220711fs.txt}

It seems to me that `guix build -S' should return both these files in some form. Maybe in a tar file...?

``` guix show smithforth

No, “guix build -S” returns the ’source’ of the package, i.e., only one
’origin’.  Here it reads:

    (source
      (origin
        (method url-fetch)
        (uri (string-append "https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/SForth"
                            version "dmp.txt"))
        (sha256
          (base32 "0a39pv7529llsa3f48fmvwvlcp3f9v8qkn5ziw2l6kxf0qvli3lm"))))

The other is listed as inputs:

    (native-inputs (list xxd
                         (origin
                           (method url-fetch)
                           (uri (string-append
                                 "https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/system"
                                 version "fs.txt"))
                           (sha256
                            (base32
                             "17v1pp64s6n8q8w3kg48nd7zdcx2208y4svr5fpfms5lkyzg7z1m")))))

Therefore, you can run:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix build smithforth --sources=all
/gnu/store/4w4v7zv4vif2k55g9srmv57fg5icpl94-SForth220711dmp.txt
/gnu/store/lvrkhx3yzjk58ma99vyp0blvr2whbvpr-system220711fs.txt
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

However, this does not work as-is yet; you need
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/73073>.

Well, I think that’s not a bug.  WDYT?  Closing?

Cheers,
simon

My first thought would be to merge this bug into 73073, if that is possible, so folks looking at 73073 can see the connection to this report.

Since it’s not a bug, closing.

I would prefer to not add to the already long thread. :-)
