The config.log fragment is
configure:2095: gcc -I${prefix}/include -I${prefix}/include
-L/usr/uumath/lib64 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/uumath/lib64 conftest.c >&5
ld: cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
I tried
guix remove gcc
Same problem. I then did
guix remove gcc-toolchain
Same problem: there is still a gcc visible: /u/sy/beebe/.guix-profile/bin/gcc.
The strace output shows that it tries to load .../libcrt1.o, instead of
.../lib/crt1.o.
Here is what I find about installed gcc-related packages:
$ guix package --list-installed |grep gcc
gccgo 4.9.4 out
/gnu/store/7108fl31hfj9lb4y76g89sxdb43c1wpc-gccgo-4.9.4
gcc-objc 8.3.0 out
/gnu/store/44r4xl10nmix25bv6bv974r280vc232c-gcc-objc-8.3.0
gcc-objc++ 8.3.0 out
/gnu/store/wqycqqp4almqcmmsj7gys56lyk9girvq-gcc-objc++-8.3.0
gcc-bootstrap 0 out
/gnu/store/fgarfy5392vz5hik1ag5b8ccv0r4cm01-gcc-bootstrap-0
gcc-toolchain 9.1.0 out
/gnu/store/aqv6njg05w2yqh8krgrjy0wcbfxb4nn3-gcc-toolchain-9.1.0
Maybe it is related to another problem that I wanted to eventually
raise on a guix list. Namely, after installing the new GUIX 1.0 VM, I
found that /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, and /sbin do not exist, and /bin
contains only /bin/sh. Even after numerous "guix install" runs, /bin
continues to have only one entry.
This seems bizarre, because it is long-standing practice that
shell scripts should set PATH to a limited value to avoid
trojan attacks, and things like "/bin/rm foo" should always work.
On your GUIX systems, do you have a reasonably populated /bin? Ditto
the other three.
