i tried running `guix install mes` which fails on my x86_64 debian
machine. CI fails as well
(https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/286577/details).

log output shows a couple of segmentation faults and an undefined
variable in phase 'check':

Could this be non-deterministic?

I just got substitutes from bayfront.guix.gnu.org:

I rebuilt it with ‘--check’ and it went fine.  Hmm!

Thoughts?

I guess i need to clarify: it's not mes building that fails; it's
mescc-tools (version 0.7.0 on x86_64) (which mes depends upon).
Sorry for the confusion.

> Could this be non-deterministic?
I have the same problem in guix on my Debian host and in my qemu Guix
System. And since the error is the same as in the build on
ci.guix.gnu.org [1] i'm under the impression that it might be (at least
somewhat) deterministic ;)
I should be able to test this in my (real) Guix System host tomorrow.


> Thoughts?
Digging through the CI logs a bit i found mescc-tools-0.7.0 failing
to build for x86_64[2]. Also there is this build (mes-0.23 for x86_64)
failing with the same errors [3], but during `check' phase for
dependency nyacc-1.00.2 (this is not the current version; also: i'm
not sure if this really is related, but the log outputs are strikingly
similar).

My debugging[5] didn't reveal anything further than what's already in
the logs. So i'm CC-ing bug-mes mailing list, since that's probably
the most adequate place to discuss this issue :)

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

I found the same issue while trying to set the environment for gnu-mes using the scripts the directory includes.

I updated the mescc-tools version to 1.1.0 and it worked.

I attach a possible patch for the `mes` repository that can easily be translated for the `guix` package.

hth,

Ekaitz

It's wrong. It should be `inputs` but you get what I mean.

I pushed this update on ‘core-updates’ as part of fixing
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49515>, which seems to be a duplicate of
this issue.

Is this needed on ‘master’ as well?  If so, I can cherry-pick those
changes.

Thanks!

Ludo’.
