Hi,

after pulling and trying to upgrade a system, Guix will fail switching
to a new system saying:

Thank you for reporting this. With commit
5fa46ca96da90ec19e32cc4d726f099d0979d60b on master, the system
tests that failed for me with this error no longer do.

Could you confirm?

Kind regards,

What system tests were failing?

At first sight I don’t see how a67c00f4f7ee0a70fce14a7e1907cce332c85813
led to this:

I’ve tried several system tests and manually running a system in a VM,
with a67c00f4f7ee0a70fce14a7e1907cce332c85813 reinstated, and cannot
reproduce the issue.

Do you know of a way to reproduce it?

that a couple of people experienced the issue on that day, but pastes
are no longer accessible.

TIA!

I just managed to reproduce this very same error message after
downgrading to commit a67c00f4f7ee0a70fce14a7e1907cce332c85813 (I lost
the previous system a couple of days ago), and it threw this error after
trying to reconfigure. Given that it is complaining about srfi-1, I
disabled everything that was relevant to it, and it still fails.

Just to be sure I'll paste my error message again:

I just did another test on another machine with this commit, and I
noticed, that despite that this error message happens, the system
generation is still put up:

The error message you showed happens during “activation”, after the
/run/current-system link has been switched to the new generation.

Would be nice to see if this generation boots fine.

Thanks,
