Hi,

Karrick McDermott <kmcdermott@linkedin.com> skribis:

>    661:47  1 (xdg-directory _ "/.config" #:ensure? _)

mk7kh62yvbi154pyy3nq8drml116a-compute-guix-derivation'

This happens because =E2=80=98with-clean-environment=E2=80=99 in
=E2=80=98build-aux/build-self.scm=E2=80=99 clears the environment while exe=
cuting
=E2=80=9Ccompute-guix-derivation=E2=80=9D.  Thus =E2=80=98HOME=E2=80=99 is =
unset.

Additionally, could it be that you=E2=80=99re not running nscd?  See:

  https://gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Application-Setup.html#=
Name-Service-Switch-1

That said, we could also let =E2=80=98HOME=E2=80=99 through in the executio=
n environment
of =E2=80=9Ccompute-guix-derivation=E2=80=9D, it can=E2=80=99t hurt.

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
