When binary files differ, a better option +is @uref{http://diffoscope.org/, Diffoscope}, a tool that helps +visualize differences for all kinds of files. + +Once you've done that work, you can tell whether the differences are due +to a non-deterministic build process or to a malicious server. We try +hard to remove sources of non-determinism in packages to make it easier +to verify substitutes, but of course, this is a process, one that +involves not just Guix but a large part of the free software community. +In the meantime, @command{guix challenge} is one tool to help address +the problem. + +If you are writing packages for Guix, you are encouraged to check +whether @code{hydra.gnu.org} and other substitute servers obtain the +same build result as you did with: + +@example +$ guix challenge @var{package} +@end example + +@noindent +... where @var{package} is a package specification such as +@code{guile-2.0} or @code{glibc:debug}. + +The general syntax is: + +@example +guix challenge @var{options} [@var{packages}@dots{}] +@end example + +The one option that matters is: + +@table @code + +@item --substitute-urls=@var{urls} +Consider @var{urls} the whitespace-separated list of substitute source +URLs to compare to. + +@end table + + @c ********************************************************************* @node GNU Distribution @chapter GNU Distribution diff --git a/guix/scripts/challenge.scm b/guix/scripts/challenge.scm new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..19a9b061b8 --- /dev/null +++ b/guix/scripts/challenge.scm @@ -0,0 +1,244 @@ +;;; GNU Guix --- Functional package management for GNU +;;; Copyright © 2015 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org> +;;; +;;; This file is part of GNU Guix. +;;; +;;; GNU Guix is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it +;;; under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +;;; the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or (at +;;; your option) any later version. +;;; +;;; GNU Guix is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but +;;; WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +;;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
