The error is that when using `-f`, guix build _evaluates_ the target file and builds the _result_. See `guix build --help`. The `define-public` does not return a `package`, hence the error. Simply remove the `define-public` and it should work. Alternatively, you can place your file in a folder pointed by GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH, leave the `define-public` and build with `guix build freefilesync --keep-failed`. Don't forget that the declared module must match the path, so if you stick to (gnu packages freefilesync) place the file in $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH/gnu/packages/freefilesync.scm. > One thing to add is that the downloaded source file is not tar.gz file > format but zip file, perhaps that's part of the problem ? I think you need (native-inputs `(("unzip" ,unzip))) And add the (gnu packages compression) module. A nit: the package name should be lowercase I think.

This is surprising t= o me as, according to the manual, configure is part of the u= sual set of tools found in the gnu build system. Let met quote :
"The (...) gnu-build-system represents the familiar GNU Build System, where packages may be configured, built, and installed with the usual ./configure &&= ; make && make check && make install command sequence.= "
I checked that bash, bash-minimal, bash-completion are all found in = the store (actually in 3 differents versions after guix puil I guess).

So again I = rely on your knowledge, hoping to get through eventually.

Many thanks in advance

Arnaud
PS : I r= eworded the package name and description as per the guidelines.

Had a look at your package, it does not have the configure script where build-system gnu is expecting. I couldn't see it anywhere else either. I've made a few changes that I attached. With this you can put the file in a directory that you append to your $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH and then just run 'guix build freefilesync'. I see the License file has three other licenses in addition to GPL3. But the names look like free software too (though I'm not a lawyer). No idea how we handle cases like that. Also, the rest of the code tree looks very non-standard as far as the tools I'm used go... Which is probably why you are having trouble building it. Hope that helps a little.

Haha, I= see that I added bash because I misread the error and someone
mentioned bash was needed.

Bash is not needed. You can delete the input for bash both the use-module a= nd
the native-input bit. Be careful of matching parenthesis.
