Hello Florian,

There is no grievance for anything. Sorry, if my message has such
a tinge, it does not correspond to what was meant. Also I do not
think that 'local-file' is doing something wrong. I suspect that
introducing changes to such an ubiquitous procedure on such a minor
subject is not necessary a good thing. What I meant is that recipe
from cookbook does not work for Guix with GUILE_LOAD_PATH configured
as in freshly installed Guix System, nothing more.

Regards,
Nigko

Hello Nigko.  Do I understand correctly: Your grievance is the
definition of `local-file', which for relative paths like "../.." does
not follow symlinks to non-directory files, but should?  And this is
because current-source-directory returns the wrong path in a Guix
channel?

That is, `local-file' does not work correctly?

And the problem is not how the cookbook is written?


Could you create a bug report by writing a mail to
