Thanks for responding. It got me thinking in a different direction. I deci= ded to delve into this problem by running the guix build command. Turn out the failure was occurring during cargo tests. Specifically: ... Running build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage2-tools/x86_64-unknown-gnu/rel= ease/deps/jobserver-dd0c6bf78d70e32b running 3 tests test jobserver_and_j ... ok test jobserver_exists ... test jobserver_exists has been running for over 60= seconds At this point the system hangs forever. After much internet searching without much for results, I decided on a hunch= to increase the number of processors on my virtual machine from 1 to 2. Tests now succeed!! rustc is now installed.
