Hello All,

A change made in b084398 is preventing both my system and home
configurations from building with a Wrong Type to Apply error. Did the
channel spec format change with the changes in that commit?

Here's my channels.scm: https://paste.debian.net/1252097/

And here's the error message for any commit after b084398:
https://paste.debian.net/1252096/

I don't know how to fix it, but here is what I think is the issue:

in guix/scripts/system/reconfigure.scm:

#:autoload   (guix describe) (current-channels)
...
(define* (check-forward-update ...
           (current-channels ...))
  (define new (current-channels)) ; this is supposed to be the
         ; autoloaded procedure, but it's the keyword argument
         ; which is a list
  ... ; uses of current-channels, the keyword argument

Hello,

I’ve got the same problem, and the revert does not seem to help. Isn’t
9096bc28, which modifies gnu/services.scm, the root of the problem?

Thanks, I was able to reconfigure after a guix pull to

I was able to successfully reconfigure with the 9096bc28 commit, but
maybe I don't use what was changed in it in my configurations.

They /do/ seem related, but I am not familiar enough with what was
changed to speculate as to a solution for either issue.

Thanks for the quick reaction.

As Julien wrote, the code referred to the wrong ‘current-channels’.
Fixed in 270e1b9e1ea2b3e41067a38b094b0656ceb56838.
