Thanks for the report.

It appears this happened while ci.guix.gnu.org (Cuirass) was down; I
wonder what the error was though. Could you please try the following:

Toggle snippet (3 lines)
$ guix build /gnu/store/6yhwysy1x5zc5s4xbdar2sayqc20fwdl-compute-guix-derivation

To retry building the problematic derivation? And attach the full
compressed log here.

Thank you,

Maxim

Thank you for the swift answer Maxim. Executing :

┌────
│ guix build /gnu/store/6yhwysy1x5zc5s4xbdar2sayqc20fwdl-compute-guix-derivation
└────

yielded nothing.

Executing :

┌────
│ guix pull
└────

yielded the same result as above.

I resized the tiny VPS to a bigger one just above and it worked. Here is the new "size" of
the VPS :

Basic - Premium AMD, Shared CPU, 1 vCPU, 2 GB, 25 GB, 2 TB

May I suggest a kind of warning or test for hardware requirements when `guix' is used ?

Thank you, PHF

Glad it worked now. What was the original system specifications? I
suspect a lack of RAM, perhaps.

That's a good suggestion, but I'm guessing difficult to implement ('guix
pull' may complete with very little memory used or a lot, depending on
the availability of substitutes).

For you specific needs (low specs), I'd suggest using this your
~/.config/guix/channels.scm file:

Toggle snippet (7 lines)
(use-modules (guix ci))

(list (channel-with-substitutes-available
%default-guix-channel
"https://ci.guix.gnu.org"))

As documented in '(guix) Channels with Substitutes'.

I hope that helps,

Maxim
