Hi!
I'm creating a new thread so that it does not end up messy.
I am reading about defining new packages, and since I have always
installed R with apt, I am trying to do so with ./configure make make
install to have it running on my VM, and then try to create the
package and check if both works
I am having trouble with the ./configure part. I find missing
dependencies, that I try to solve using guix package -i PACKAGE
I am running
./configure --with-readline=no --with-x=no
First I faced not having gfortran, so I run
guix install -i fortran
ran ./configure again, and ended up installing
zlib and bzlip2 (both with guix package)
Now, after running ./configure, I get the error:
configure: error: "liblzma library and headers are required"
but I cannot find that with guix package.
Any Ideas about what I should do?
besides, I don't know why I still get every time I run guix package
-i, for instance:
The following package will be installed:
bzip2 1.0.6 /gnu/store/rw1ilvs76rf2p4p0bi1fx3bffprwwb7g-bzip2-1.0.6
substitute: guile: warning: failed to install locale
substitute: hint: Consider installing the `glibc-utf8-locales' or
`glibc-locales' package and
substitute: defining `GUIX_LOCPATH', along these lines:
substitute:
substitute: guix package -i glibc-utf8-locales
substitute: export GUIX_LOCPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale"
substitute:
substitute: See the "Application Setup" section in the manual, for more info.
When I run guix package -I I get:
hello 2.10 out /gnu/store/bihfrh609gkxb9dp7n96wlpigiv3krfy-hello-2.10
recutils 1.7 out

bzip2 1.0.6 out /gnu/store/rw1ilvs76rf2p4p0bi1fx3bffprwwb7g-bzip2-1.0.6
And even at the bottom of my .bashrc I have:
export GUIX_LOCPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale"
export PATH="/home/laura/.guix-profile/bin${PATH:+:}$PATH"
export CPATH="/home/laura/.guix-profile/include${CPATH:+:}$CPATH"
export
LIBRARY_PATH="/home/laura/.guix-profile/lib${LIBRARY_PATH:+:}$LIBRARY_PATH"
Could you help me clarify this?
-Recall I am running everything under an Ubuntu distro -
