This is because ‘strip-runpath’ expects FILE to contain a DT_RUNPATH
section. Failing that, the ‘runpath’ variable at gremlin.scm:417 is #f
and the (dynamic-entry-type runpath) calls right below fails with a
wrong-type-arg error.
A solution would be to fix ‘strip-runpath’ (patch below), though that
involves a world rebuild.
Another solution is to arrange so that ‘meson-build-system’ does not
touch .go files for this package, for instance by skipping the
‘shrink-runpath’ phase.
HTH,
Ludo’.
