Hel= lo all,
I'm trying to create a package definition, following mainly the manual= pages :
- Packaging Guidelines
- = Defining-Packages
- and Debugging-Build= -Failures

In the attached .scm file, here is what I gathered it might look lik= e as a first try.
The thing is that I can not debug the build process, even though I u= se the --keep-failed option : I'm not getting a temp build directory (/= tmp/guix-build-...) as I expect :
arnaud@brix ~$ guix build -f /home/ar= naud/freefilesync.scm --keep-failed
guix build: error: #<unspecified&= gt;: not something we can build
arnaud@brix ~$ cd /tmp/

One thing to add is that the downloaded source f= ile is not tar.gz file format but zip file, perhaps that's part of the = problem ?
T= his is a GuixSD install with guix pull done yesterday.
