Hi,
Sometimes, I see an error like the following (it is not specific toant-bootstrap):
Toggle snippet (12 lines)
$ guix package -m ~/profile-packages.scm ...building /gnu/store/76apf0hpcdabpjy0839nhkwgfrz3m8z5-ant-bootstrap-1.8.4.drv...| 'build' phasebuilder for `/gnu/store/76apf0hpcdabpjy0839nhkwgfrz3m8z5-ant-bootstrap-1.8.4.drv' failed with exit code 1build of /gnu/store/76apf0hpcdabpjy0839nhkwgfrz3m8z5-ant-bootstrap-1.8.4.drv failedView build log at '/var/log/guix/drvs/76/apf0hpcdabpjy0839nhkwgfrz3m8z5-ant-bootstrap-1.8.4.drv.bz2'.cannot build derivation `/gnu/store/3l11fmnyc4k1dcwlijk4vdsq70jc4lqs-icedtea-3.7.0.drv': 1 dependencies couldn't be builtkilling process 20600cannot build derivation `/gnu/store/b071r8bm2n01mp50g6r5ghxl0m09akdx-profile.drv': 1 dependencies couldn't be builtguix package: error: build of `/gnu/store/b071r8bm2n01mp50g6r5ghxl0m09akdx-profile.drv' failed
But when I try to view the log file very quickly after getting thesemessages (within about 1 minute or so), I get:
Toggle snippet (4 lines)
$ file /var/log/guix/drvs/7f/n896phqyv9r636yhjipa9k4qm7g9ni-evolution-data-server-3.30.2.drv.bz2/var/log/guix/drvs/7f/n896phqyv9r636yhjipa9k4qm7g9ni-evolution-data-server-3.30.2.drv.bz2: empty
However, when I come back a few minutes later, mysteriously the file hasbeen populated:
Toggle snippet (4 lines)
$ file /var/log/guix/drvs/7f/n896phqyv9r636yhjipa9k4qm7g9ni-evolution-data-server-3.30.2.drv.bz2 /var/log/guix/drvs/7f/n896phqyv9r636yhjipa9k4qm7g9ni-evolution-data-server-3.30.2.drv.bz2: bzip2 compressed data, block size = 900k
Indeed, I was originally going to report that the file was empty, butwhile I was writing this email, it filled up! Is this behaviorexpected? I anticipated that the file would be finalized (empty or not)before the helpful message "View built log at ..." was printed, but itseems like that message is proleptic, which makes it a little confusing.
