it completes and display "Hello, world!". Well, the commit 0d371c6 is
one day older than the one you used 9744cc7.


Then, let pull the same faulty version

guix pull --commit=9744cc7 -p /tmp/new

and re-run the time-machine using '/tmp/new/bin/guix'. It completes too.


Do not know if it helps.

During that interval, I see two potential culprits:

01611d141e quirks: Add patch for https://bugs.gnu.org/41214.
9db8836916 channels: 'build-from-source' restores '%guile-for-build'.

This is fixed by 36640207c9543e48cd6daa92930f023f80065a5d, which also
fixes the “incompatible bytecode” warnings.

That’s because the inferior for that commit is cached in
~/.cache/guix/inferiors. That “hides” the problem.

Thanks, comrades!

Good to know. Thank you for the explanation.
So if I would like to reproduce using this strategy, before the new
pull, I should have to "garbage collect" to remove this cache, right?

Yeah, you can rm ~/.cache/guix/inferiors/* to be sure.
