Generating system test derivations are difficult, since you generally need to
do potentially expensive builds for the system you're generating the system
tests for. You might not want to disable grafts for instance because you might
be trying to test whatever the test is testing in the context of grafts being
enabled.
I'm looking at skipping the system tests on data.guix.gnu.org, because they're
not used and quite expensive to compute.
This is a service designed to provide information about Guix. At the
moment, this initial prototype gathers up information about packages,
the associated metadata and derivations.
The initial primary use case is to compare two different revisions of
Guix, detecting which packages are new, no longer present, updated or
otherwise different.
It's based on the Mumi project.
