d/icecat-extension.scm?id=1300c316e9ab27ce042d41b3ebd6fad7e3c26efb'>gnu: ‘make-icecat-extension’ inherits package location.Ludovic Courtès This is an improvement for the purposes of ‘guix edit’ & co. * gnu/build/icecat-extension.scm (make-icecat-extension): Add ‘location’ field. Change-Id: I896ae6823b3fe4ea013fa74e2c536f45664d8042 2023-10-23gnu: icecat: Support Guix packaged extensions and native manifests.Clément Lassieur * gnu/build/icecat-extension.scm: New file with a MAKE-ICECAT-EXTENSION procedure that makes sure the add-on directory is a symlink, so that Icecat can normalize it into a package store path. * gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Register it, as well as new patches. * gnu/packages/browser-extensions.scm (ublock-origin)[properties]: Store the add-on ID so that it is accessible in MAKE-ICECAT-EXTENSION. [arguments]: Use the add-on ID as root directory. (ublock-origin/icecat): New procedure. * gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm (icecat-minimal)[arguments]: Rewrite the unused 'apply-guix-specific-patches' phase so that it applies the following two patches. [native-search-paths]: New field. * gnu/packages/patches/icecat-compare-paths.patch: New patch that compares add-on paths (which are package store paths) to detect package changes. * gnu/packages/patches/icecat-use-system-wide-dir.patch: New patch that replaces "/usr/lib/mozilla" (the system-wide directory for extensions and native manifests) with "$ICECAT_SYSTEM_DIR".
