Hello,

I'm trying to update a (very) old guix installation in my root default
profile

when pulling I'm getting this error:

build-aux/build-self.scm stubs (gcrypt hash) and (git).
Likewise, it could be modified to stub (ice-9 exceptions) when
'guile-version' refers to a pre-(ice-9 exceptions) Guile.

According to Guile's NEWS, (ice-9 exceptions) is new in 3.0.0,
so the stubbing needs to be made conditional on guile-version<3.0.0.

Additionally, I'm looking into reducing the number of imports and
cycles, so possibly the situation will resolve itself eventually.

Greetings,
Maxime.

I get the meaning of "stubbing" but I don't know how to code in Guile,
sorry ? cannot help here

Meanwhile is there anything I can do to upgrade my guix-damon (on
foreign distro), I never upgraded my root default profile since I first
installed Guix on this machine so now I'm stuck at

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

g@renaissance:~$ guix describe -p /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix
Generation 1    Jul 20 2020 02:08:33    (current)
g@renaissance:~$ /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix/bin/guix-daemon --version
guix-daemon (GNU Guix) 1.0.0

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This machine is trying to build ungoogled-chromium even if I'm pretty
sure there is a substitute available (installed on another machine with
the very same Guix channel) and I suspect it depends on "something"
related to the guix-daemon


Thanks! Gio'

Ok, I've tried something in the attached patch (completely untested).

What guix is the guix service using?  If it's /usr/bin/guix installed
with the foreign distro's package manager, you can do, in case of
Debian, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"

Suggestion: use your regular user's guix to upgrade root's guix:

$ sudo -i "`which guix`" pull 

(this assumes the non-root user has a vaguely up-to-date guix)

Greetings,
Maxime.

Hi Maxime,

sorry for this late reply!

I solved my problem with an ugly workaround: installing the Debian
provided guix package and temporarily using that updated daemon in the
systemd service, so I was able to upgrade to an updated Guix (since the
package in Debian is not up to date with upstream)

It was version 1.0.0

No, I was not using the Debian provided package, I installed from the
upstream Guix binary

Wow!  I did not get it before your suggestion! :-O

IMHO this should be the default way to upgrade root's (or any othe user
with an out of date Guix) guix-daemon installation

[...]

Bug closed, thanks! Gio'

Hi,

For some reason I had not seen this issue earlier; too bad it remained
for this long.

This is now fixed in 8918ce6d1622303465e716ae491b8e5124c7aece.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
