[bug#72643] [PATCH core-updates 0/6] Restore i586-gnu (GNU/Hurd) support

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello!

This patch series fixes Hurd support (i586-gnu) on ‘core-updates’,
as described <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/72315>.  It does so by
updating the ‘glibc-bootstrap’ tarball.

I built the new tarball from the third commit and dropped it
under gnu/packages/aux-files, which where the commit marked as
“DRAFT” picks it up.  Of course we’ll change that to a URL at
ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guix/bootstrap/i586-gnu once we agree on the
strategy.

For convenience, I uploaded the tarball here:

  
https://people.bordeaux.inria.fr/lcourtes/tmp/glibc-stripped-2.39-i586-pc-gnu.tar.xz
  
https://people.bordeaux.inria.fr/lcourtes/tmp/glibc-stripped-2.39-i586-pc-gnu.tar.xz.sig

  nix-sha256: 0x2x6w611k6v9qdabacawamw2475p04hm3s0q95xcg063wjq4ig2

I was able to build this successfully:

  ./pre-inst-env guix build \
    -e '(@@ (gnu packages commencement) glibc-final-with-bootstrap-bash)' \
    -s i586-gnu

I’ll try to build some more and see.

I’d like to push this to ‘core-updates’ soon since it’s probably the
last blocker before we can merge.

Thoughts?

Ludo’.
