That failed immediately. The reason is that apparently GNUnet's test suite only works if GNUnet has already been installed. In this case, since the build failed, the guix-daemon deleted the /nix/store/* directory where it had been installed :-( I think it's going to hard to reproduce the build environment outside of guix-daemon. I think it would be better to try a modified recipe that only runs a subset of the tests. Mark
