Ok, so far, I've got the build environment setup, but I realized that I must have urwid to get an ncurses interface in wicd, so I'm doing that first. Here is the urwid.scm http://paste.lisp.org/display/14553 before you point out anything, I plan to put it on the python.scm file, just not right now because I don't want to get confused or anything. Here is the error file after I ./configure, make, ./pre-inst-env guix build urwid http://paste.lisp.org/display/145537 Also notice that I didn't change the hash, it's the same one as the less.scm hash. I still don't know how to generate the base32 string. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You must also install GNU Gettext, also mentioned in the HACKING file.
