Just to follow up: a roll-back does NOT solve the issue.
What I have tried:
1) roll-back via guix system roll-back (to the generation that was
created upon system installation)
2) roll-back via guix package --roll-back (same)
3) (1) + (2) combined
4) boot into the generation created upon system installation.
In none of these cases was I able to run 'guix pull'.
Does it help for you to see my system configuration file? Because there
isnt much in there apart from very basic packages (ncdu, recutils, some
fonts, some icon packs) and a few services (GDM->SDDM login manager,
MATE desktop, TOR). Also note that before the re-installation, I have
not experienced problems with this configuration (MINUS mate desktop and
TOR).

Hello,
o.ro...@posteo.net skribis:
on a freshly installed and reconfigured machine, I receive the
following error:
# guix pull: error: You found a bug: the program
'/gnu/store/kpxami25fi3mrxb37sfbbx2s366chpk5-compute-guix-derivation'
# failed to compute the derivation for Guix (version:

Is there more info above these lines?
I tried to reproduce it with:
guix time-machine --commit=398ec3c1e265a3f89ed07987f33b264db82e4080 \
-- time-machine --commit=790ada9168e0689c1c4607c61cdc1d2dbc327abf \
-- describe
but it works for me.
I'm not entirely sure if, in this case, it is about RAM, as has been
mentioned in this thread: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/41710 . I do
have 24gb ram, but currently a small swap file, but that might be
totally unrelated.
24 GiB is more than enough.
Is the problem reproducible if you try again now?
Thanks for reporting the issue,
Ludo’.
