Trying to package GNU Gama...

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 249 bytes --]

Hello Guix,

I'm trying to package GNU Gama, but I'm blocking on 2 tests failing due
to file IO problems.  Maybe can someone with more experience find how to
fix that? If not I will send un updated patch with the tests disabled.

What’s the error message for those file I/O issues?  Perhaps bug-gama
could provide hints?  Otherwise you could always strace things...

Thanks,
