paps not found after migrating VM

paps not found after migrating VM

[Laura Lazzati]

Hi guix!

I've been migrating my VM to a new fresh one with the same foreign
distro but installed with minimal installation (Ubuntu 18.04) and I am
encountering this issue:
When I try to run the script to create the documentation videos, I get:


/build-video.sh
Entering a Guix container to build the videos.
Available packages in the container: paps make imagemagick guile
ffmpeg inkscape coreutils findutils cairo-xcb
guix environment: error: paps: unknown package

Paps is installed. Here I show the output of 'which paps' 'guix
--version' and 'guix package -I'

New VM that doesn't work:

I wonder about the version. It should be 0.16.0 only after
installation. Did you ever do a 'guix pull'?

If you did pull, then you should have as version one of the latest
commit ids:

guix --version
guix (GNU Guix) e01bd1a67447c1f2a2b5b03e8ea8fbbccd2cd5bd
Copyright (C) 2019 the Guix authors

Compare also the copyright year!

paps was added this year, on: 2019-01-05 

If after a guix pull you still see the wrong guix version, maybe
something in your PATH is pointing to the wrong guix?

Look at `which guix`, it should be somehting like:

/home/user/.config/guix/current/bin/guix

Hi Bruno :)

Yes, I guix pulled, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to install
paps. I will guix pull again, does no harm.

It is super weird.

I think this is the issue, it is not pointing at the right guix. Will
let you know after fixing it :)
Thank you for your help.
