Noticed on my aarch64-linux VM today that golang builds are 
failing:

   $ guix build go

   make.bash: line 159:

This was working in the previous generation, which was commit 
680d01aeefaec383da44c3b6920c8a42f41613e9.  I don’t see any changes 
to go-1.4 or go-1.17 in there, but there are some go-build-system 
change, which might be related.

Hi,

The issue may come from the fact that all tests started to run
as default is ./... .

I can check later on Monday.

Hi,


> cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

This looks like one binary built on one architecture is invoked on other.

May you share the steps please?

Yes.  My original report includes the output of `file' on the 
binary in question, which is a 32-bit ARM ELF executable. 
Presumably this cannot be directly executed on a 64-bit ARM host.

Running  `guix build go' on an aarch64-linux machine reproduces 
the issue.  I included what I thought would be all the relevant 
information in my original report, including a commit where this 
worked, the commit where it’s broken, the machine type, and the 
output of `file' on the binary that’s failing to run.  If you need 
more information, please let me know what specific things would be 
helpful, and I’d be happy to provide it.

Hi Ian,

I tried to reproduce it with time-machine and your commit on
--system=aarch64-linux:

It built succefully on my end in Qemu as you may see. I've got x86_64 for the
host machine.

Is any chance you may provide a similar reproducer?

close 75932
thanks

Hi Sharlatan,

I rebooted my VM and am no longer able to reproduce the issue, 
even though I hadn’t pulled any newer revisions.  Not sure what 
was going on with this, might be a reproducability bug.
