Python-3.3.5 fails its test suite on i686. See: http://hydra.gnu.org/build/90159 http://hydra.gnu.org/build/90159/log/tail-reload I guess it's probably related to the glibc-2.20 update. Interestingly, the problem doesn't occur on x86_64. Any volunteers to look into it? If you have an i686 box running Guix, you can compile the latest core-updates and get substitutes for all of python-3's build dependencies. Mark
