Hi,

so I've got a new drive and installed Guix (from the iso from the homepage) on it.

Then I ran guix pull.

Then I installed gcc-toolchain and tried to compile the following program:

int main() {
	return 42;
}

using

  gcc a.c

but I get:

ld: cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory

I tried rebooting, to no avail.

It used to work.

FWIW, I restored my $HOME from backup, but I think the per-user profiles are in
/var/guix/profiles/per-user, and I didn't restore anything in /var.

Hmm,

$ guix environment --ad-hoc gcc-toolchain

makes it work in there.

Maybe I forgot to actually reboot?  brb...

Yep, works after reboot.  Sorry for the noise.
