Guix build of guix package fails due to some graph tests failing

The `guix` package currently fails to build. Looking at the build

log, this is because some tests in tests/graph.scm fail, and the

actual test log complains about a wrong arg type to

scm_to_utf8_stringn for both failing tests. I did recently have a

transient `guix pull` issue with a similar error, but guix is now

functioning as usual.

Both the build log and tests/graph.scm test log are attached below

Thanks for the report. I have not seen this error about

tests/graph.scm.

Are you running plain “make check” or do you pass an argument as “make

check -j 123”?

Cheers,

guix has been building fine recently, so either it's something

unpredictable or it was inadvertently fixed at some point. Feel

free to close the bug report unless you want to hunt down what

actually happened.

The build error was from `guix build guix`, so make check was

running with whatever that calls it with. In case it's relevant,

the build error was on a pinebook pro, so 6-core aarch64.

Otherwise, the issue hasn't resurfaced and it's been a month, so

the original report and attached build log are gonna be about as

good a source of information as what I remember.

Thanks,

Well, for reproducing, the usual requirements are your Guix revision

(guix describe) when you see the issue. Also the architecture and if it

cross-compiled (--target=aarch64-linux-gnu) from which host, often help.

I am in favour of closing if no objection.

I'm also in favor of closing. (I'm pretty sure I've garbage

collected the closest generation to it, anyways).

Thanks for the help!

Done!

You can close any bug yourself by editing the reply address in the

CC header, as I did here.

Kind regards,
