Gnucash not reproducible

The command that i am using to install gnucash is this:

guix install --fallback --rounds=3 --cores=1 --max-jobs=1 --keep-failed

gnucash

And the output is this:

-output ‘/gnu/store/i5g5scdn9ic90lq4qfrhjlb8gpkijxpv-gnucash-3.8-debug’

of ‘/gnu/store/0ri0xdaqb03mk33ii2irwp8ps1vaih0q-gnucash-3.8.drv’ differs

from

‘/gnu/store/i5g5scdn9ic90lq4qfrhjlb8gpkijxpv-gnucash-3.8-debug-check’

from previous round

build of /gnu/store/0ri0xdaqb03mk33ii2irwp8ps1vaih0q-gnucash-3.8.drv failed

Which Guix version are you using (guix describe)? And which architecture?

Because I am not able to reproduce.

All the best,

Hi,

I apologize for the late reply.

The architecture is 64bit and the guix describe gives:

guix describe

Generation 3    Oct 20 2020 07:59:16    (current)

  guix 93c2518

Hum? I have tried with 2 machines running 2 Guix versions and then from

these both, run "time-machine". Not able to reproduce.

To be specific: 58af4c9 and fd0ef0e, simply:

guix build gnucash

guix build gnucash --no-grafts --check -K

Then from these 2 versions,

guix time-machine --commit=93c2518 -- build gnucash

guix time-machine --commit=93c2518 \

-- build gnucash--no-grafts --check -K

and all seems fine.

However, running several times “guix build gnucash --no-grafts --check

-K” with fd0ef0e raised once an error about non-deterministic.

So maybe it is a Schrödinger-like issue.

Moreover, I do not know what is going on but the webpage [1] looks

weird. And the “reproducible” Data Service checker [2] is unhappy too.

Thanks for the report. It needs more investigations… Do you want give

a try?

PS: One late email (overnight-for-me, speaking) and bunch of physic is

covered. ;-)

Well, with a fairly recent guix:

branch: master

gnucash 5.5 is now still not reproducible, but apparently for a possibly

different reason, the share/doc directory seems to include a versioned

and/or unversioned directory:

guix challenge --verbose --diff=diffoscope gnucash

guix challenge: warning: could not determine current substitute URLs; using defaults
