Hi, Leo Famulari <l...@famulari.name> skribis:

I say they succeeded because `guix build > --no-grafts foo` did not need to build foo after having imported the nar > archive built on the other machine. ‘guix build’ starts building unless all the outputs of the package are already in the store. > However, it fails for packages with multiple outputs such as Syncthing > and libsmf. Could it be that you copied only one output of the package, and thus ‘guix build’ considered it had to build it because the other outputs were missing? Thanks, Ludo’.
