guix pull fails on raspberry

guix pull fails on raspberry

[Vittorio Malaguti]

Hi, I installed guix on the raspberry os as a secondary package
manager (the hardware is the raspberry pi 3B+).

I used the script to install it, after installing the hello package to
make sure everything was working, I make 'guix pull'.

I tried many different options:
guix pull --fallback
guix pull --no-grafts
guix pull --commit=<a commit in may, another in july>

every time it fails to pull with a segmentation error, usually on the
guix-packages-base.drv

Here a log:

-----------------------

$ sudo -i guix pull --no-grafts --fallback

Re: guix pull fails on raspberry

[Julien Lepiller]

I think you're not using the correct architecture. From what I see on the internet, the raspberry pi 3 is an aarch64 board. armhf (armv7) and aarch64 (armv8) are somewhat compatible, but some instructions are not the same, so you can get this kind of segfaults by using the wrong arch.

HTH!

And to add to the confusion...

If you're running the raspberry pi images produced by raspberrypi.org
(which are built with raspbian), you'll be running an armhf variant
built for ARMv6(even though the hardware is capable of aarch64/ARMv8,
and nearly all other distros build armhf for ARMv7). So the userspace is
ARMv6, even though your kernel is aarch64/ARMv8...

Though I would think the guix binaries should still work, as the kernel
you're running should support backwards compatibility with older ARM
specifications... but may as well try the aarch64 guix binaries.
