Hi
I tried following the manual build* from a fresh git pull.
From 7.6:
" ./pre-inst-env guix build gnew --keep-failed
If the package is unknown to the ‘guix’ command, it may be that the
source file contains a syntax error, or lacks a ‘define-public’ clause
to export the package variable. To figure it out, you may load the
module from Guile to get more information about the actual error:
./pre-inst-env guile -c '(use-modules (gnu packages gnew))'"
After putting the new package definition below into python.scm:
(define-public python-twisted
(package
(name "python-twisted")
(version "15.5.0")
(source
(origin
(method url-fetch)
; (extension "tar.bz2")
; (uri (pypi-uri "Twisted" version extension))
(uri (pypi-uri "Twisted" version))
(sha256
(base32
"0zy18lcrris4aaslil5k12i13k56c32hzfdv6h10kbnzl026h158"))))
(build-system python-build-system)
(inputs
`(("python-setuptools" ,python-setuptools)))
(home-page "http://twistedmatrix.com/")
(synopsis
"An asynchronous networking framework written in Python")
(description
"An asynchronous networking framework written in Python")
(license license:expat)))
./pre-inst-env guix build cannot find it.
I then do:
$ ./pre-inst-env guile -c '(use-modules (gnu packages python))'
but it tries to auto-compile python.scm and fails with:
;;; ERROR: failed to create path for auto-compiled file "path/to/file"
WTF?
From within guix environment guix --container:
it compiles without errors.
cheers

Is there more output? Sometimes syntax errors or otherwise invalid
expressions are reported as guix build fails to find the package.
From what I can tell “./pre-inst-env guix build python-twisted” should
just work. I have never had to use the “guile -c” way.
