[bug#30772] [PATCH 0/2] Factorize the 'bootstrap' phase

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello Guix!

I think time has come to factorize the 'bootstrap phase.  :-)

This patch adds an unconditional ‘bootstrap’ phase to the ‘gnu’ build
system.  The phase does nothing when there’s already a ‘configure’
script; otherwise it does the usual thing, and tries to adjust to the
most common conventions.  There are still some cases where we need to
keep a custom ‘bootstrap’ phase, but that’s fine.

I’ve tested by rebuilding a bunch of packages.  Unfortunately I couldn’t
go very far because Libtool fails to build (test failure) on
core-updates and I didn’t want to investigate right away.

This change is for ‘core-updates’.

Feedback welcome!

Ludo’.
