Hi Damien, Thank you for reporting the issue.
Which Guix version do you use (command "guix describe")? Against which Git commit? Because I am not able to reproduce. :-( I am using a fresh checkout with the Git commit 5e61de242156cdb3314abac168d9682ca7a4c28f. And I have tried the old Guix version d68de958b60426798ed62797ff7c96c327a672ac which is the Guix version of v1.0.1 (a fresh install), I guess. Inside a fresh checkout, I run (an old Guix version with time-machine): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- guix time-machine \ --commit=d68de958b60426798ed62797ff7c96c327a672ac \ -- environment --container guix --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Then ./bootstrap and ./configure and the error is about Guile-JSON but not Guile-Git. Note that the option '--container' requires to set to 1 that '/proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone' on my stable Debian. As Gábor said, "guix pull" should fix the issue. As Julien pointed out, the option '--pure' could avoid some PATH issue. Or the "stronger" option '--container' is your kernel supports it. I do not know if it is related to the option '--localstatedir=/var'. But except if you have changed the default when installing Guix, it is required at ./configure time. Well, it is documented for example here [1] or there [2] or overthere [3]. I know... :-) My question is: because you missed it (as I also did), it means that the documentation could be improved, so where do you think this information should be provided?
