Cyclically dependent channels crashes guix pull. Cyclically dependent
channels probably shouldn't happen, but guix pull probably shouldn't go
into an endless loop and die either.
Cheers!,

Can you provide a channel configuration that reproduces this?

When one channel depends on another one which depends on the first.
This /tmp/channel1/ contains this .guix-channel
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(channel
(version 0)
(dependencies
(channel
(name channel2-from-channel1)
(url "file:///tmp/channel2")
(branch "master"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This /tmp/channel2/ contains this .guix-channel
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(channel
(version 0)
(dependencies
(channel
(name channel1-from-channel2)
(url "file:///tmp/channel1")
(branch "master"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
And for example, the file 'my-channels.scm' contains:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(list
(channel
(name 'channel1)
(url "file:///tmp/channel1")
(branch "master"))
(channel
(name 'channel2)
(url "file:///tmp/channel2")
(branch "master"))
(channel
(name 'guix)
(url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git")
(commit "aea6ab2f4ca060e68f8539cd612b0ce088627557")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Then guix pull -C /tmp/my-channels.scm will be "Updating ..." for ever. :-)
Hope that helps.
All the best,
simon
