[bug#61968,gnome-team,v4,0/8] Update GNOME Builder to 44.2.

Dear guix,

Did you think I forgot this issue?  I did not!

A few of these updates also qualify for GNOME 44.6; no need to update them.

GNOME Builder starts, but unfortunately flatpak is broken on my side.
However, it can build out of flatpak.

What do you think?

Best regards,

Vivien

What does "build out of flatpak" mean here?

Thanks for keeping up the work.  I will have to wait for CI, but
assuming it lights green, I'm looking forward to push this series.

Cheers

Now I realize it may not mean anything, sorry.

I wanted to say, you can switch your compilation target. By default, it
tries to build with flatpak. For that, it requires a SDK and runtime
that it tries to install through flatpak.

Unfortunately, flatpak fails to do anything on my computer, throwing:

    error: open(O_TMPFILE): Permission denied

To be fair, I did some experimental activities with my flatpak
installation, when trying to build guix packages as flatpaks.  It did
not turn very successful, and things must be deeply broken now on my
computer.  I should investigate, but let’s say I’m not in the mood
right now.

Anyway, regarding gnome-builder, you can switch your compilation target
to “Default”, and then your project compiles with the dependencies that
are available on the system.  Thus, “out of flatpak”.

It may not work anyway by default for folks who install Builder since I 
assume Builder tries to use SDKs that are only available in a repository 
that doesn't follow the FSDG.

Sorry to hear your experiment didn't work out; that sounds like a really 
neat idea!

I'd be OK with having a builder without flatpak support. Too bad there 
isn't a "build with Guix" backend. Maybe one day!

Best,
Jack

One day, we will have our own versions of the common SDKs, reproducibly
built only on Guix packages.

(not today though!)

Speaking about today, since today we would just run into errors, can we
make "build without flatpak" the default? :)

Or better yet, disable whatever feature brings in the "build with
flatpak" option, as it's currently broken?

I’m not sure how to do that. I guess the answer is in how the project
uses the "IdeConfigManager" class, but it’s hard to track where it adds
entries.
