Some more info, still no full picture. TL;DR: 28dc10a4 breaks the cross build on master (i.e. reverting it fixes the cross build), but core-updates has 28dc10a4 and there the cross build works. So cross building with 28dc10a4 depends on something else that is in core-updates which is missing from master. Progress at https://gitlab.com/janneke/guix branches v9 and v9-core. My v9 mingw patch set rebased on current master cannot cross build readline ./pre-inst-env guix build --target=3Di686-w64-mingw32 readline ... @ build-failed /gnu/store/m6gq2xz5kd3vn4zm1i0i6j0immlgyhmg-make-boot0-4= .1.drv - 1 builder for `/gnu/store/m6gq2xz5kd3vn4zm1i0i6j0immlgyhmg-make-bo= ot0-4.1.drv' failed with exit code 1 cannot build derivation `/gnu/store/1fjnm2x2az4z4qaz3bad5p5zbygf5wqs-gc= c-cross-boot0-4.9.3.drv': 1 dependencies couldn't be built guix build: error: build failed: build of `/gnu/store/1fjnm2x2az4z4qaz3= bad5p5zbygf5wqs-gcc-cross-boot0-4.9.3.drv' failed Should that make-boot0 cross-build cross succeed... ./pre-inst-env guix build --target=3Dx86_64-linux-gnu make-boot0 guix build: error: make-boot0: unknown package hmm, how to find out?...or should in not happen and in that case, what erroneously makes it happen? Reverting commit commit 28dc10a455689c807abc9241ed1094d902a9d9fa Author: Ludovic Court=C3=A8s Date: Sun May 29 23:15:14 2016 +0200 gnu: glibc: Refer to the target kernel headers when cross-compiling. makes the make-boot0 error go away, readline and guile.exe cross build. I don't know how to find out if the make-boot0 build succeeded, or did not happen? However I have rebased onto core-updates, which also has commit 28dc10a4, and there readline and guile.exe cross build succeed. So, last week I spent cherry-picking patches from core-updates onto master in an effort to investigate what's going on. Sofar I have tried fb341ca gnu: commencement: Disable Texinfo tests during bootstrap. 461513b profiles: 'profile-derivation' now honors #:system. 0f24c8d gnu: perl: Do not retain references to GCC & co. and have run almost out of inspiration what to try looking at the diff between v9 and v9-core, I have now added 9e574f6 gnu: glibc: Update to 2.23. and am looking at another Guile build...we'll see.
