The only tarball I see there is:

  https://web.fdn.fr/~lcourtes/software/guix/1.1.0rc1/guix-1.0.1.13450-01d5f2.tar.gz

Which does not correspond to the commit from 01d5f2 (which happens to be
a few hundred commits behind master)... 

Which commit was it actually built with? I know it's not a release, per
se, but git tags would be *really* helpful even for release candidates...

When building my own local guix tarballs, I found it disturbingly easy
to get the wrong version information into the tarball .version and
.tarball-version and consequently the resulting tarball...


It also appears to be missing gnu/services/linux.scm, which causes it to
fail to build when I attempt to build the debian package:

  [ 49%] LOAD     gnu/tests/linux-modules.scm

  Some deprecated features have been used.  Set the environment
  variable GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED to "detailed" and rerun the

  this message.
  make[3]: *** [Makefile:5859: make-go] Error 1
  make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'

But gnu/services/linux.scm is present in git...

I notice gnu/services/linux.scm is also missing in some of my locally
built git snapshot tarballs, so there appears to be something broken in
the tarball generation process.


live well,
