I tested by adding python-paramiko to native-inputs [0], changed the dummy values to something meaningful, and tried your command: ------ $ duplicity /tmp sftp://leo@domain/dummy_backup Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed. Last full backup date: none GnuPG passphrase for decryption: % ------ I didn't go past that point but it seems to fix the specific bug you reported. So, I pushed the change: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=b1c97ff60b8ac8205d878fec3af8d02ffdf601fe You can do `guix pull --commit=b1c97ff60b8 && guix package --upgrade=duplicity` to get the new version of the package. [0] It's unusual for run-time dependencies like paramiko to be a native-input. Typically, native-inputs are just build-time dependencies. Maybe there is some room for improvement in our Duplicity package... https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/package-Reference.html
