I understand.

First, since the package you are building is yours, more information
is required to be able to find what is wrong.  Idem about your
channel.


The questions in my previous email are:

 1. could you provide the last version of Guix where it "worked"?
 2. could you provide the current version of Guix where it is "broken"?

The #1 means that you have to:

  a) "guix pull -l | grep guix".  This will display all the previous
versions of Guix you had (hoping that you have not deleted by running
"guix gc" with some well-chosen options).
From these versions (hashes), you can run:

   guix time-machine --commit=<hash> -- build -L paht/to/your/local/pkg sbcl-foo

and see which worked and which not.  The easiest is to go
anti-chronological (start by your current Guix version and go
backward).

  b) "guix describe" and probably attach the recipe of your broken
package.  For example it seems that one of your package is named
"sbcl-deploy" since you have one item in the store named
"/gnu/store/fgfag09f1amsk82bs6jmg9h4rv6hqb94-sbcl-deploy-0.0.0-1.59fd497"
and this package is not in "master", AFAICT.


All the best,
