I get the following exception when I run the command:

Failure of “guix lint -c archival i cecat”
(address . 47293@debbugs.gnu.org)

Hi,

Indeed, there is a bug. Because the source of ’icecat’ raises a case
that is not handled by ’check-archival’ in (guix lint).

Basically in the snippet:

Toggle snippet (5 lines)
(match (lookup-content (content-hash-value hash)
(symbol->string
(content-hash-algorithm hash)))

’lookup-content’ expect a bytevector for ’content-hash’ and in the case
of ’icecat’, it returns #f. Then raises the backtrace.


For the record, compare ’icecat’ with ’hello’:

Toggle snippet (22 lines)

Icecat uses an unusual thing called a "computed origin", which means
that its source is itself built from other sources. The only two places
in Guix where this is currently done is 'icecat' and 'linux-libre'.

See 'computed-origin-method' and 'icecat-source' in
gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm, and 'computed-origin-method' and
'make-linux-libre-source' in gnu/packages/linux.scm.
