Trying to build lilypond but guix downloads firefox?

[jgart]

Hi,

Is there a reason why I would see this in stdout when I run ./pre-inst-env guix build lilypond?

substituting /gnu/store/n6w5qizdwx2kpas061dcn5gdgvaqlwr1-firefox-91.13.0esr.source.tar.xz...

Just trying to understand why guix would try to download firefox when I try to build lilypond...

all best,

jgart

Did you by any chance paste the wrong sha256 when upgrading lilypond?
Firefox is not even officially packaged, so that's the only thing I can
think of.

I don't know the answer to the question, but I'll clear up this 
sidequest:

IceCat is built from Firefox ESR sources, using the ‘makeicecat’ 
script and other modifications.  If there are no substitutes for 
the modified source, this processing can happen locally, which 
would download the original.

See 
<https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm#n483>.

That said, icecat 91.13 is 3 months old.  Somebody's Guix needs an 
update.

Kind regards,
