* maint: Switch to Guile-JSON 3.x.Ludovic Courtès2019-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Guile-JSON 3.x is incompatible with Guile-JSON 1.x, which we relied on until now: it maps JSON dictionaries to alists (instead of hash tables), and JSON arrays to vectors (instead of lists). This commit is about adjusting all the existing code to this new mapping. * m4/guix.m4 (GUIX_CHECK_GUILE_JSON): New macro. * configure.ac: Use it. * doc/guix.texi (Requirements): Mention the Guile-JSON version. * guix/git-download.scm (git-fetch)[guile-json]: Use GUILE-JSON-3. * guix/import/cpan.scm (string->license): Expect vectors instead of lists.
