Works just fine when not doing "make" but just interpreting the stuff
using ~/src/guix-master/guix/pre-inst-env guix environment ...

What is your 'guix --version'?

Presumably you can fix this by importing (guix openpgp) in (guix scripts
download), but IWBN to figure out why it works on other systems.

Which version of Guile-Gcrypt do you have in that profile?
You need 0.2.0 or later.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Oops.

I've installed the host guix using the armhf tarball from the website.

$ which guix
/usr/local/bin/guix
$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/guix
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Mar  4 15:25 /usr/local/bin/guix -> /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix/bin/guix

Aha!  That's different to Guix System, right?

$ ls -l /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix -> current-guix-1-link
$ ls -l /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix-1-link/
[...]
libexec -> /gnu/store/a8041j3pg62zi62b30w91mxrmjsamp64-guix-1.0.1/libexec

I guess I could guix pull under root user, but that would hide these kind of
usability bugs under the carpet :)

In any case, seems to work fine to just not compile target guix in the first
place and have it be interpreted, so that's what I'm doing now to get some
actual work done :)

Will try guix pull as root later...

OK, so “not-a-bug” from my perspective.  :-)

‘guix pull’ under the user you want, but you have to use a Guix that’s
recent enough to provide Guile-Gcrypt 0.2.0 or later.  :-)

Cheers,

Sure, buy maybe configure could check the guile-gcrypt version or something and
error out? :)

I mean especially that it doesn't use my regular user's guix (ever), as opposed
to Guix System--where it does.

I don't think guix pull under non-root would help.

I've now added $HOME/.config/guix/current/bin to PATH in ~/.profile of the
regular user manually--let's see.

Thanks for checking :)

But it would be nice to have some kind of nicer error message, if that's
possible.

Good idea; done in c1dc50ab202fafedde3a6b70ce6339496ad53a51.
