Hi Ludo,

Thanks for your patience. :-)

Ah, a good news. :-)

Not here.  What I running is this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(with-imported-modules '((guix build utils))  ;import it
  (computed-file "empty-tree"
                 #~(begin
                     ;; Put it in scope.
                     (use-modules (guix build utils))

                     ;; Happily use its 'mkdir-p' procedure.
                     (mkdir-p (string-append #$output "/a/b/c")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And it perfectly works. :-)  As explained in the very first email in
this thread.

The issue is when I am adding (guix profiles) and nothing more to the
previous perfectly working ’computed-file’.  How can I guess that this
module (guix profiles) requires (gcrypt hash) as extension?  Just to be
loaded since it is not used.

Sorry I am missing the obvious.

Cheers,
