[native-inputs]: ... to here. Also add ncurses that is needed in a cross-compilation context to build texinfo native tools. --- gnu/packages/texinfo.scm | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'gnu/packages/texinfo.scm') diff --git a/gnu/packages/texinfo.scm b/gnu/packages/texinfo.scm index fa98bd56b8..c661dc23ae 100644 --- a/gnu/packages/texinfo.scm +++ b/gnu/packages/texinfo.scm @@ -42,8 +42,28 @@ (define-public texinfo (base32 "0qjzvbvnv9003xdrcpi3jp7y68j4hq2ciw9frh2hghh698zlnxvp")))) (build-system gnu-build-system) - (inputs `(("ncurses" ,ncurses) - ("perl" ,perl))) + (arguments + ;; When cross-compiling, the package is configured twice: once with the + ;; native compiler and once with the cross-compiler.
