GNU Smalltalk does not build in Guix environment

GNU Smalltalk does not build in Guix environment

[Zelphir Kaltstahl]

Hi Guix Users!

I just tried installing GNU Smalltalk in a Guix environment as follows:

manifest.scm file:

~~~~start~~~~
(specifications->manifest
 '("smalltalk@3.2.5"))
~~~~~end~~~~~

command:

~~~~start~~~~
guix environment -m manifest.scm
~~~~~end~~~~~

output:

~~~~start~~~~

The following derivations will be built:
   /gnu/store/qcrhqpksjfb84dv4vnisx7kxmx090bcn-profile.drv
   /gnu/store/yh4kyvg0s1zwwih4lgm8x5sb4j0m3aa8-smalltalk-3.2.5.drv

I do not remember this happening with another package before and I do
not know what I could do to fix it.

I thought this might be interesting to know for a maintainer of the package.

Additional info:

+ I am using Guix on Trisquel 8.

Indeed, smalltalk fails to build (in tests):

/gnu/store/pwcp239kjf7lnj5i4lkdzcfcxwcfyk72-bash-minimal-5.0.16/bin/bash './testsuite' 
## ------------------------------- ##
## GNU Smalltalk 3.2.5 test suite. ##
## ------------------------------- ##

Regression tests.

  2: classes.st                                      ok
  3: blocks.st                                       ok

^C

Thank you for reporting, I made bug 42771 for it:
