So my server that runs https://gnucode.me is a guix system linode server!=
=C2=A0 Woo
hoo!
Well lately the server is being a right pain, and it refuses to update. Mo=
st
likely my server is lonely and just wants a hug.

I have used guix deploy in the past to update my linode server, which works
super awesomely well! But lately, guix deploy no longer updates my linode
server.

/run/current-system/configuration.scm is the old configuration and not the =
new

So it appears that guix deploy is not updating my server. That's annoying. =
I've
been guix deploying my server happily for a while now, and I didn't even re=

that the server was failing to update.
Well, I had a similar issue, where my laptop was really outdated...guix pul=

failing. To update my laptop I built guix from source. I described that her=

Well, since guix deploy fails to update my linode server, I tried running g=

pull: First I powered down the linode and updated the vm so that it had 4GB=
of
RAM.
Then at 2pm today, I ran guix pull. It started building stuff, and I let i=

Hmmm, that is really odd.
So let's try to update my linode server by building it from source eh? Sinc=
e my
linode server only has 1 GB of RAM, I temporarily updated it to 4GB of RAM.
joshua@HIDDEN $ guix gc && guix shell --pure --check -D guix
That above command took 4 hours to complete. Guix shell took forever to bui=
ld stuff. I saw some odd stuff that was getting built.=C2=A0 :(

I do have git installed on my server, but the "--pure" command blocked that.
So let's try doing what the manual actually says to do:
guix shell -D guix -CPW
./configure
checking for xz... /home/joshua/.guix-profile/bin/xz
checking for git... no
configure: error: Git is missing; please install it.
Ok, let's abide by the manual a little more and add in these helpful additi=
onal packages.
guix shell -D guix help2man git strace -CPW
./configure
make
sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure ../guix-config/linode-guix-s=
ystem-configuration/gnucode.me-current-config.scm
The above command failed a few times, because I had to tweak the gnucode.me=
-current-config.scm file. First I had to change dovecot-service to dovecot-=
service-type. Then I had to get rid of the deploy stuff in the file. Then I=
was able to rerun the command and it worked:
sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure ../guix-config/linode-guix-s=
ystem-configuration/gnucode.me-current-config.scm
This command also took a LONG time! It was building glibc-mesboot0, and ot=
her very low level stuff.
Someone on irc said that I should take a look at what guix weather said
