Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for your reply!
> You did not run “./configure --localstatedir=/var”.
I did, in an earlier cycle. More precisely, I did
./configure --prefix=/opt/guix --localstatedir=/var
in order to prevent Guix from overwriting some of Ubuntu's system files.
In order to start from a clean slate, I now did
guix environment guix
make distclean
./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=/opt/guix --localstatedir=/var
make check
sudo make install
This fails even earlier, complaining about a missing makeinfo:
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/hinsen/Development/guix'
MAKEINFO doc/guix.info
/home/hinsen/Development/guix/build-aux/missing: line 81: makeinfo:
command not found
Checking config.log, I see that indeed makeinfo has not been found:
MAKEINFO='${SHELL} /home/hinsen/Development/guix/build-aux/missing
makeinfo'
However, it is available in my environment:
~/Development/guix [dev]$ which makeinfo
/gnu/store/2kgp5d4wh40b49gp4qwqh2b4il29gq6g-profile/bin/makeinfo
There are a few other executables marked as missing:
aclocal
autoconf
autoheader
automake
dot
help2man
I started from scratch again, but added the paths for these executables
manually to the generated Makefile, right after configure. That got me
back to the error message that I got before:
/bin/bash: line 5: gawk: command not found
sed: couldn't write 47 items to stdout: Broken pipe
/bin/bash: line 5: echo: write error: Broken pipe
...
However, config.log says:
configure:2900: checking for gawk
configure:2916: found
/gnu/store/2kgp5d4wh40b49gp4qwqh2b4il29gq6g-profile/bin/gawk
configure:2927: result: gawk
and Makefile contains
AWK = gawk
Next, I replaced this line by
AWK = /gnu/store/2kgp5d4wh40b49gp4qwqh2b4il29gq6g-profile/bin/gawk
and re-ran "make install". Success!
Conclusion: something is going wrong in configure.
Konrad.
