Re: boot the Hurd with Guix

2018-01-07 Thread rennes

Hello,

This is the updated repository with the necessary patches to compile  
GNU Guix in Debian GNU/Hurd.

 https://github.com/methalo/guix

In the README-hurd file, describe the steps to generate the binaries  
required to boot GNU Hurd (Missing more patches).


 ** Current STATUS

Currently I have error in guile-static-stripped-2.2.2 package[1].

 Steps to reproduce the error:

 1) Manually run :
 
'/gnu/store/6fgz3s8fjva40hsdvs2hs0f5p4bw12jc-guile-static-stripped-2.2.2/bin/guile  
--version'


 Output:

guile: warning: failed to install locale
..
Uncaught exception:
Throw to key misc-error with args ("primitive-load-path" "Unable to  
find file ~S in load path" ("ice-9/boot-9") #f)Can\

not exit gracefully when init is in progress; aborting.
Aborted
