Subject: Offloading builds does not honor --keep-failed
Date: Sat, 06 Aug 2016 12:48:54 +0000

This bug is to keep track of and not forget to add this feature to
build offloading:

When I offload builds to my build machine(s), I want to keep the results
of failed builds to investigate the reason for failure.

Currently this does not happen with offloading, we should fix this as
its a nice feature to have.

Adding to this: offloading does not support `guix build --keep-going`
either.

Additionally with enabled offloading, guix pull has no option to build
on its own when the build machines are down.

Being able to pass something like
guix pull -- --no-build-hook
would be good.

Offloading still does not honor --keep-failed, but with
b3673e9917217fc27c743092e58e4eb33d0fdd16 there is at least a warning
about it now.

Not sure when it was added, but 'guix pull --no-build-hook' does work
(now).

Actually no.  :-)  The warning is for when you have

  GUIX_DAEMON_SOCKET=guix://host.example.com

and not when you’re offloading.

I was thinking that we could turn off offloading when ‘-K’ is passed;
that’s usually what one expects no?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

It's certainly my main use of '--no-build-hook'.

This is a feature, not a bug; and the other points discussed have been
resolved.  Closing!
