Possible bug in configuration-system?

Possible bug in configuration-system?

[Raghav Gururajan]

Hello Guix!

As mentioned in this page of manual 
(http://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Mapped-Devices.html), for 
lvm-device-mapping, I did the following in my config.scm:

```
  (mapped-devices
   (list
    (mapped-device
     (source
      (uuid "47bb32fe-da7f-4eb6-a11d-ae07a3a2e6f8"))
     (target "secondary")
     (type luks-device-mapping))
    (mapped-device
     (source "secondary")
     (target (list "secondary-root" "secondary-home"))
     (type lvm-device-mapping))))
```

When I did `guix system reconfigure`, I got the following error:

```
Backtrace:
In ice-9/boot-9.scm:
   1736:10 19 (with-exception-handler _ _ #:unwind? _ # _)

   1669:16  0 (raise-exception _ #:continuable? _)

ice-9/boot-9.scm:1669:16: In procedure raise-exception:
In procedure string-append: Wrong type (expecting string): 
("secondary-root" "secondary-home")
```

When I do the following in my config.scm, system reconfigure works fine:

```
  (mapped-devices
   (list
    (mapped-device
     (source
      (uuid "47bb32fe-da7f-4eb6-a11d-ae07a3a2e6f8"))
     (target "secondary")
     (type luks-device-mapping))
    (mapped-device
     (source "secondary")
     (target "secondary-root")
     (type lvm-device-mapping))))
```

So seems like listing more than one target causes the error. Is this a bug?

RG.

Hi Mikhail!

I just noticed the commit 
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=a9a2fdaabcc78e7a54d9a6bcfa4ee3de308e9a90.

Do you have any clue regarding the following issue?

Hi Raghav,

Example in the manual is wrong, it should say 'targets' instead of 'target'.

Mikhail.

Hi Mikhail!

Ah! So there is a separate field called 'targets', where `(list` is 
supposed to be used?

RG.
