bug#32326: Failing Tests on Fedora 28

[Michael Bowcutt]

After building guix 0.15.0 from git on Fedora 28, I've had 10 tests
fail.

My dependency versions are:

   GNU Guile: 2.0.14
   GNU libgcrypt: 1.8.3
   GnuTLS: 3.6.3
   Guile-SQLite3: 0.1.0
   Guile-Git: 0.1.0
   zlib: 1.2.11
   GNU Make: 4.2.1

   Guile-JSON: 1.0.1
   Guile-SSH: 0.11.3
   libbz2: 1.0.6

   SQLite 3: 3.22.0
   GCC g++: 8.1.1

In all, the failing modules (accoring to the output of 'make check')
are

   hackage.scm
   inferior.scm
   pack.scm
   lint.scm

I fixed tests/inferior.scm in commit
a81b59b1bf99255cf78d736c3d2aa28eb1e9bbdf.

The other issues have to do with developer tools that you may not need
(yet! ;-)), and I’m tempted to ignore them since we will soon drop
support for Guile 2.0 (these test failures don’t show up on Guile 2.2.)

Thus I highly encourage you to upgrade to Guile 2.2.  I think Fedora has
a Guile 2.2 package, but otherwise you can install Guix from the binary
tarball, or simply get it by running “guix pull”: that’ll give you
Guix-on-Guile-2.2 as ~/.config/guix/current/bin/guix.

Thanks for your report,
Ludo’.
