Hello all,
After doing a full rebuild of Guix, I've gotten myself in a situation
where guix environment segfaults. Would anyone else be willing to test
and verify that guix environment works for them? I want to make sure
that it's working properly in time for the release.
Running something like 'guix environment emacs' and verifying that a new
shell spawns should be a good enough test.
Thanks!

I've tracked down the problem here. I was using a package defintion that I tweaked to include a native search path specification for LD_LIBRARY_PATH in order for Guile's dynamic-link procedure to work without an absolute path to the library. Mark told me that I can instead use LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH. This works without segfaulting! -- David Thompson Web Developer - Free Software Foundation - http://fsf.org GPG Key: 0FF1D807 Support the FSF: https://fsf.org/donate ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

This did indeed spawn a new shell for me with a different `env'. I ran `./pre-inst-env scripts/guix environment emacs' after git pull, autoreconf etc. HTH, Alex ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
