bug#52081: [core-updates-frozen] Wine fails to build; failing i686 tests

[John Kehayias]

Hi everyone,

I was hoping the polkit/duktape patch would resolve issues with i686 builds 
that prevent Wine from building (on x86-64 where it needs the i686 version). 
While it has gotten further, it is failing due to test failures on i686 for its 
dependencies. I've successfully built Wine for i686 with:

guix build wine -s i686-linux --without-tests=plotutils 
--without-tests=glib-networking --without-tests=lib2geom 
--without-tests=gtk+@3.24.30

I don't know if I'll have the chance today to try to disable or fix the failing 
tests on i686 for these packages, which would also likely help the i686 
coverage (lots of packages depend on these). If someone is more familiar with 
these packages and tests, that would be most helpful.

Here are the most recent failure logs on Cuirass for the packages:

plotutils (2 tests): https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1685012/log/raw

glib-networking (1 test): https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1759508/log/raw

lib2geom (1 test): https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1690360/log/raw

gtk+@3.24.30 (2 tests): https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1331231/log/raw

Hope this is helpful! If I do make any progress on patches for these tests, 
I'll add it to this thread.

John
