<amirouche>maybe ./pre-inst-env is ready to take its input from ./gnu/
<amirouche>try to modify a package .scm and use the command ./pre-inst-env guix build the-package --keep-failed
<amirouche>or create a new one

<amirouche>the daemon is not running maybe ?
<antono>it is running
<Steap>really, you may want to runconfigure.
<antono>no.. no success.
<antono>i'll just use stuff from tarball
<antono>otherwise it broken for me
*antono building bsod emulator for unix
<antono>I think guix need simple workflow for packagers
<antono>it should be very simple. othervise it will not be attractive
<antono>:)
<Steap>the workflow is quite simple
<amirouche>not as simple as «mkdir overlay; guix build overlay/package.scm» ...
<antono>i want to start in any directory and create simple package definition
<antono>oh, really?
<antono>trying
<amirouche>it doesn't work
<amirouche>I was saying it should be that simple
<amirouche>antono: ^
<amirouche>on nix it works like that
<amirouche>nixos I mean
<antono>amirouche: right
<amirouche>sorry
<antono>it should be as easy as you told
<amirouche>I will redo the thing to get work guix and report to you
<amirouche>it will take a bit of time since I creating a VM for my use
<amirouche>but anyway
<amirouche>I will write what I do
<antono>btw, guix pull always fails for me
<antono>can anyone confirm?
<amirouche>2 hours ago it failes but before that it was working (yesterday); trying right now
<amirouche>it working...
<amirouche>no it failed guix pull: error: build failed: build of `/nix/store/f8wjrnaf30imlnp05nmha0qx88h984zb-guix-latest.drv' failed
<antono>yep. something like this
<antono>hydra with prebuilt binaries could be helpful when you doing first 'guix build'
<amirouche>actually they are prebuilt binaries
<amirouche>I'm not sure why it fails there is not log about the failure
<antono>why everything is build from source in my case?
<antono>maybe wrong config?
<amirouche>dunno
<amirouche>maybe you added --no-substitute option
<antono>right :)
<antono>otherwise server is unresponsive
<Steap>antono: yeah, hydra is down
<amirouche>Hi all
<amirouche>antono: I solved the issue you had yesterday, again with install pkg-config
<amirouche>xorg-server is failing

<amirouche>skribillo fails to build the documentation
<antono>i prepared new package for guix
<antono>trying to build it with ./pre-inst-env guix build package
<antono>first time it failed... i changed definition and run command again
<antono>it looks like it uses cached version from nix store and my changes invisible
<Steap>that's weird
<Steap>amirouche: copy/paste the error, maybe ?
