bug#32360: gst-plugins-base has test failures (when built as a dependency)

[Björn Höfling]

Hi,

gst-plugins-base has somehow a problem, which I don't understand fully.
Can someone have a look into it? It was already reported by Piere
Neidhardt on the help mailing list:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2018-06/msg00075.html

OK, so I am on 5803f87284c228ca131d74a4259238e7685526ac and do:

./pre-inst-env  guix build gst-plugins-base
/gnu/store/58i3gmidcbksf7cxwhfjrp2w22k6glqa-gst-plugins-base-1.14.1-doc
/gnu/store/g3iwkhs7sjrhsaqq3bwmj81mxsa5c3d1-gst-plugins-base-1.14.1


Looks good.

I can also build the derivation:

./pre-inst-env  guix build gst-plugins-base -d
/gnu/store/zg9bmdlrdwd4i4c1prz4hzzjm3877nkl-gst-plugins-base-1.14.1.drv

I can also add options "--no-grafts --no-substitutes", same result.

Now, I want to build wine:

Building package wine
Full build command: ./pre-inst-env guix build wine --no-grafts --no-substitutes
Guix commit:

The following derivations will be built:
   /gnu/store/shmcbb9yb99y0kfhn42dz2gpmqnifsmn-wine-3.0.2.drv
   /gnu/store/yrk539har2g5pw1rw5b9k8nq9p0w3c1h-gst-plugins-base-1.14.1.drv

starting phase `set-SOURCE-DATE-EPOCH'
[...]

What I find strange is that the derivation of gst-plugins-base differs
from the one above when directly building gst-plugins-base. That would
make sense to me if there would be two packages of gst-plugins-base,
like an inherited one or just any kind of copy. But here, the package
definition of wine ist just using the "normal" package. Or have I
overlooked something? Have I misunderstood something about derivations
here?!

This derivation will fail to build. Here is the end of the log:

When looking at Hydra, it succeeds in direct build (for x86_64):

https://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/gst-plugins-base-1.14.1.x86_64-linux

On i686 it fails with the same opus test.
On ARM it fails with different test failures.


When you look at the build of wine-x86-64:

https://hydra.gnu.org/build/2937119

it fails building gst-plugins-base.


I tried upgrading to the 1.14.2 bugfix release: Same behaviour.

Any ideas someone?

Thanks,

Björn
