Hi Guix Devel,

I am (again) having (new) test suite failures while building guix version 0.10.0 on Cent0S-7 and would appreciate your help.

I am building and testing as follows:

env -i PATH=${PATH} bash ## build in a clean shell
bld=$(mktemp -d) ## in a clean, new, empty directory
cd $bld
git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix.git  --branch v0.10.0  guix@v0.10.0  
cd guix@v0.10.0  
mkdir LOGS ## this is where I'll put logs of each build step
./bootstrap |& tee LOGS/boostrap.log
pfx=${bld}/pfx  ## use a bogus prefix while testing the build process
./configure --prefix=${pfx}  |& tee LOGS/configure.log
make -j20   |& tee  LOGS/make.log
make -j20 check |& tee  LOGS/make.check.log

I interrupted the check after "PASS: tests/guix-build.sh"  as it seemed hung (top showed no activity)

The failed logs are attached.  They are:

tests/builders.log
tests/guix-lint.log
tests/guix-package-net.log
tests/packages.log
tests/guix-system.log
tests/guix-environment.log

In case it helps, searching them for 'error:' finds:

Also attached are all my LOG/*.log  files if it helps

If there is any better info I can provide to help in diagnosing, please advise.

Thanks,
