@twilk I can't reproduce the error. For tests/go.scm, you probably have to patch guile-lib PKGBUILD because it doesn't install into the standard location.

Hi, I get unit test errors after building:

FAIL: tests/go.scm
FAIL: tests/git-authenticate.scm
FAIL: tests/channels.scm
FAIL: tests/git.scm

The full log of tests is here.

Errors include GPG errors from git:

error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object

And even some errors from guile:

actual-error:
+ (unbound-variable
+   "module-lookup"
+   "Unbound variable: ~S"
+   (html->sxml)
+   #f)

[...]

I have the following guile-* packages installed, which include all of this package's regular, build and optional guile-* dependencies:

• guile 2.2.7-1
• guile-avahi 0.4-1
• guile-bytestructures 1.0.7-1
• guile-gcrypt 0.3.0-1
• guile-git-lib 0.5.1-1

• guile-sqlite3 0.1.3-1
• guile-ssh 0.13.1-1
• guile-zlib 0.1.0-1
• guile-zstd 0.1.1-1

new 1.2?

@simona The failed test came from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/guile-git-lib, not guix.

@simona I can't find tests/clone.scm in guix. Where does this test come from?

FAIL: tests/clone.scm

@SArchB Please don't remove the length check. There are many tests assuming the path isn't too long, and tests/gexp.scm is just an example. I just got a successful build under the directory /home/lantw44/g.

Ok, so first this kept failing for me on the 'no longer then 36 bytes' issue, which for me seemed unsolvable since my '/home/username/.cache/yay/guix/src/' was already over 36 characters in length. So, I changed this limit in the PKGBUILD to skip the issue. The PKGBUILD stated the lenght check to be there to prevent tests/gexp.scm from failing, but later during the testfase the gexp file was automatically skipped.

Next though, the build still failed. Looking into the logs it failed multiple times for 2 specific reasons:

1. It was unable to define my email address:

   fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'username@computername. (none)')

2. Many times it said:

   failed to download "/tmp/guix-file.7yoWNT" from https://hackage.haskell.org/package/foo/foo-1.0.0.tar.gz

The 2nd seems logical since https://hackage.haskell.org/package/foo/foo-1.0.0.tar.gz isn't a valid address, it should be https://hackage.haskell.org/package/foo-1.0/foo-1.0.tar.gz

So, in my experience, at this moment, this package won't build properly on the latest version or Arch.

@exaos Is it a networking issue? I just tested it in a clean VM and there are no failed tests. Do you have logs for debugging?
