@joz If you want to run tests, please build the package in a directory with a shorter path. For example, It is OK to build and test the package in /home/lantw44/guix, but you won't be able to run the test if you build it in /home/lantw44/aur/guix because the length of /home/lantw44/aur/guix/src/guix-1.0.0 is 37 bytes. The reason of having the check is that lengths of UNIX domain sockets and shebangs are limited.

Hi, this fails for me with "The working directory cannot be longer than 36 bytes."

However, if I make the check() function a dummy one (return 0), the package gets built.

@doronbehar Thanks for your gnutls-guile package. I will switch this package to use gnutls-guile on the next update.

I am still working on the patch to update guix to 1.0.0. There are still a few failed tests, and I am trying to resolve them. I cannot apply your patch because you removed a lot of necessary things.

If anyone is interested, here is my patch for the 1.0.0 release:

Error downloading sources: guix

@lantw44 you are probably right, I was looking through this a few weeks ago and do not remember my findings clearly.

Anyways, it is more hassle to maintain a custom gnutls package (though there might be one on the AUR, or someone could put it up), than to install directly, and not be dependent on arch packages.

@sngn GnuTLS enables Guile binding automatically when Guile is found on the system. Since 'make' package on Arch Linux is built with Guile enabled, GnuTLS should be able to find Guile because 'make' is a part of 'base-devel'. It is the Arch Linux maintainer of 'gnutls' package that disables Guile binding explicitly. In fact, 'gnutls' package had been built with Guile enabled for a few years. It got disabled when 'gnutls' was updated to 3.6.

For anyone who wants to install guix right now..

I successfully built gnutls with guile bindings and installed this guix package.

Though I uninstalled again and followed guix manual for binary installation.. which is the way I would recommend if you want to install guix on arch right now.

I don't think that arch gnutls is gonna build against guile in the near future, because upstream doesn't and that's kind of the whole point of arch, that you get 'pure' packages, meaning as close to upstream as possible.

I reported the problem to Arch Linux bug tracker: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/61095.
