[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The added "release" make parameter, fixes the following bug:
make: ./dune.exe: Command not found

Tested with ocaml-menhir package update
(which will follow soon)

This may force a lot of other rebuildings, so
may not be suitable for master

Thanks for the patch! I tried using it, but even though dune builds
fine, this new version removed support for jbuild, which creates build
errors when building e.g. ocaml4.07-sexplib0.

Note that according to "guix refresh -l dune" there are only 137
dependents, so this change could go to master. However, we need to find
a solution to the above issue. The guix refresh command should give you
the list of packages that depend on dune. Make sure that those who
build now still build after your patch, or fix them. We could also
duplicate the dune package and uses the older dune for our packages
that still use jbuild. Alternatively, as suggested by dune, maybe we
can try to run "dune upgrade" in these packages.

What do you think would work best?

Ah, that explains the build problem I met in my attempt to package
coccinelle... It surprised me since I read in the dune doc that jbuild
should be supported by dune. Maybe that doc is outdated...

Yep, I saw that, but I also tried "guix refresh -lr" and that gave a
huge list. Maybe that's not relevant, I'm still low on the
guix / guile learning curve...

Yes

This may be the path of least resistance, and would let us
handle problems without a flag day...

That is a question I cannot answer, I did not know about dune
before today ;-)

But I'll try to "dune upgrade" a few of them and we'll see where
this'll lead...

I was not expecting to fall in such a rabbit hole...
But this is fun, I'll keep at it.

Thank you for your contribution.  The recent commit 339177956a updates
dune to 2.7.1.  Does it work for your use-case?

If yes, feel free to close this.


All the best,
simon

Closing, as dune has been updated past 2.4.0.
