Hi Ludo,
I tried building Guile with the following Guix package definition:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public guile-2.2-awesome
(package (inherit guile-2.2)
(name "guile-awesome")
(source (origin (inherit (package-source guile-2.2))
(patches (list
"/home/rwurmus/0001-Remove-weak-tables-and-revert-to-weak-hash-tables.patch"
"/home/rwurmus/0002-Keep-weak-hash-table-item-count-consistent.patch"))))
(arguments
(substitute-keyword-arguments (package-arguments guile-2.2)
((#:phases phases)
`(modify-phases ,phases
(add-before 'pre-configure 'bootstrap
(lambda _
(zero? (system* "autoreconf" "-vif"))))))))
(native-inputs
`(("autoconf" ,autoconf)
("automake" ,automake)
("libtool" ,libtool)
("flex" ,flex)
("texinfo" ,texinfo)
("gettext" ,gettext-minimal)
,@(package-native-inputs guile-2.2)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Unfortunately, I cannot bootstrap Guile on this 1.5 TB RAM server:
