bug#62113: Elpy fails to start within a guix shell environment

[Rafa Gálvez]

Hi,

 I can't make Elpy work. In my main profile I have emacs-elpy installed,
 but whenever I open a .py file, there is an error on the sentinel:
 error in process sentinel: elpy-promise-reject: peculiar error: "exited
 abnormally with code 1"
 error in process sentinel: peculiar error: "exited abnormally with code
 1"

 This is most probably caused by the lack of the elpy python module in
 the guix shell I'm running Emacs from. However, there is no python-elpy
 package to install. I am avoiding setting up a virtualenv in order to
 rely completely on Guix manifests for reproducibility purposes.

 Maybe what's just needed is to package https://pypi.org/project/elpy/
 into Guix?

 Thanks,

Rafa Gálvez

Hi again,

 The PyPi package is actually empty, Elpy ships it directly apparently. 

 I'm missing something then. How are you setting up Elpy on Guix?

 Thanks, 

Rafa

Could you please share a minimal reproducer?  The Python files are
included with the emacs-elpy package (those under:
https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy/tree/master/elpy).

See 'guix edit emacs-elpy' for the details.
