Subject: bug#56503: Poor error message on missing file using substitute*
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2022 18:16:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r12r9txi.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello Guix,
When substitute* encounters a nonexistent file, the error is reported to
the guix CLI like so:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
error: in phase 'bake-tor': uncaught exception:
system-error "mkstemp" "~A" ("No such file or directory") (2)
phase `bake-tor' failed after 0.0 seconds
Backtrace:
11 (primitive-load "/gnu/store/0i9iay6rahmps8by40aja6qz1fv…")
In guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm:

In procedure mkstemp: No such file or directory
note: keeping build directory `/tmp/guix-build-onionshare-cli-2.5.drv-0'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The main error message, "system-error "mkstemp" "~A" ("No such file or
directory") (2)" is malformed and doesn't report the actual file which
is missing; one must decipher the backtrace for clues as to which file
caused the error.
We should improve it :-).
