libxsl reprise

In building libxsl I run into this error

/gnu/store/qkw4zrwfybxww8f56nkb6hggxambk89b-bash-4.4.0/bin/bash:
./configure: No such file or directory

In keeping the build directory, as Pjotr notes in his notes, I find

/tmp/guix-build-libxsl-1.4.0.drv-0$ ls
environment-variables  source/

configure  is in source/libxsl/configure

I added this piece

(arguments
  `(#:phases
    (modify-phases %standard-phases
      (add-before
       'configure 'pre-conigure
       (lambda* (#:key inputs #:allow-other-keys)
         (chdir "source/"))))))


I also tried with

            (chdir "source/libxsl"))))))

and I get

ERROR: In procedure chdir:
ERROR: In procedure chdir: No such file or directory

No such file or directory ?

What am I missing now ?

Thank you all again

Try:

(chdir "libxsl")

The reason for this suggestion is that "source" is already
traversed/changed-to after "unpack" phase. Because Guix already tries to
change to first directory it finds in the source.

If it still doesn't work, revert the one I just recommended, and add:

... before the "configure" phase:

(display (string-append "Current working directory before configure phase is: "
                        (getcwd) "\n"))

This line will print which directory is being worked on before the error.

Without the libxsl package definition, it's hard to say exactly what's
going wrong. But, you could add the package 'tree' to (native-inputs)
and then add a line like this to your pre-configure phase:

(zero? (system* "tree"))

... and it might help.

Is it not?:
'configure 'pre-configure

You're welcome! :)

I'm glad it worked well.
