Hmm, I don't remember installing guile-2.0-ssh. I don't think that's the
cause. But something similar might happen as I find out that I put
"$HOME/.guix-profile/share/guile/site/2.0/" into my
GUILE_LOAD_PATH. After removing it, I get a different error message:


alexvong1995@debian:~/scm/guix$ ./pre-inst-env guix package -u
substitute: ;;; Failed to autoload make-session in (gnutls):
substitute: ;;; ERROR: missing interface for module (gnutls)
substitute: Backtrace:
substitute:            1 (primitive-load "/home/alexvong1995/scm/guix/scripts/gu…")
substitute: In guix/ui.scm:
substitute:   1352:12  0 (run-guix-command _ . _)
substitute:

substitute: guix/ui.scm:1352:12: In procedure module-lookup: Unbound variable: make-session
guix package: error: corrupt input while restoring archive from socket


Then I put back
"/gnu/store/m3yq3yknck7ibnav0503jjhr6rv6j1pa-gnutls-3.5.D/share/guile/site/2.0/"
into my GUILE_LOAD_PATH and I get back the old error message:

substitute: Backtrace:

guix package: error: corrupt input while restoring archive from socket


However, if I run "guile -c '(use-modules (gnutls))'", then it will
succeed without any error. What's going on?


Thanks!
