Hi Carl,

> After resolving bug#49985, a new build failure has stumped a community member of mine. When building /gnu/store/8kap9kj0ayhaqd4ay7n9lgpbcwankxrq-binutils-mesboot0-2.14.drv, the build fails and the logs are as follows: https://paste.sr.ht/~dongcarl/7fe559b338dfa9aa3cf3464dbdab8109487c9783#8kap9kj0ayhaqd4ay7n9lgpbcwankxrq-binutils-mesboot0-2.14.log-L5504
Here’s the relevant excerpt for posterity:

Heh. :-)

Could you go to the build directory, run “. ../environment-variables”,
and run the configure script like so:
sh -x ./configure …
? That way we’ll see if PATH is getting overridden somewhere.
/gnu/store/2z4y0n547x7d566281isklk9ls2d8c9q-sed-mesboot0-1.18/bin/sed is
a valid i386 static binary AFAICS.
Thanks,
