The Guix Data Service indicates that the package avogrado is broken. https://data.guix.gnu.org/repository/1/branch/master/package/avogadro/output-history > I then tried to install Avogadro, but met the following error when > building it: > > make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/build' > make: *** [Makefile:155: all] Error 2 > command "make" "-j" "4" failed with status 2 > note: keeping build directory `/tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0' > builder for > `/gnu/store/pc3pdcpm0mwbfvymwizfs14mdfb6qa5x-avogadro-1.2.0.drv' failed > with exit code 1 > build of /gnu/store/pc3pdcpm0mwbfvymwizfs14mdfb6qa5x-avogadro-1.2.0.drv > failed Before that, I get: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- [..] -- Setting new boost python libraries CMake Error: failed to create symbolic link '/tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/build/libavogadro/include/avogadro//tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/build/libavogadro/src/config.h': no such file or directory -- Enabled python terminal CMake Warning at libavogadro/src/extensions/symmetry/libmsym/CMakeLists.txt:44 (export): Cannot create package registry file: /homeless-shelter/.cmake/packages/libmsym/0734694d5c49e2816b4ae48943d7700a No such file or directory [..] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- then: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- [..] /tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/avogadro-1.2.0-checkout/libavogadro/src/extensions/symmetry/libmsym/src/orbital.c: In function ‘orbitalFromQuantumNumbers’: /tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/avogadro-1.2.0-checkout/libavogadro/src/extensions/symmetry/libmsym/src/orbital.c:70:24: error: non-floating-point argument in call to function ‘__builtin_signbit’ char *d = (signbit(m) == 1 ?

But I think the error comes from an early step. Well, then I am running: cd /tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0 mkdir mine && cd mine guix environmment avogadro cmake ../avogadro-1.2.0-checkout/ --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- [..] CMake Error: failed to create symbolic link '/tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/my/libavogadro/include/avogadro//tmp/guix-build-avogadro-1.2.0.drv-0/my/libavogadro/src/config.h': no such file or directory [..] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- So I would try to address this first error by examining the folder avogadro-1.2.0-checkout/. All the best, simon
