While trying to add a package to compression.scm, I just added the line #:use-module (gnu packages python)
This results in the following error: Backtrace: In ice-9/eval.scm: 392: 19 [eval # ()] In ice-9/boot-9.scm: 2667: 18 [define-module* (gnu packages compression) #:filename ...] 2642: 17 [resolve-imports (# # # # ...)] 2580: 16 [resolve-interface (gnu packages python) #:select ...] 2505: 15 [#<procedure 2698940 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:2493:4 (name #:optional autoload version #:key ensure)> # ...] 2772: 14 [try-module-autoload (gnu packages python) #f] 2111: 13 [save-module-excursion #<procedure 2e5b900 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:2773:17 ()>] 2783: 12 [#<procedure 2e5b900 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:2773:17 ()>] In unknown file: ?: 11 [primitive-load-path "gnu/packages/python" #f] In gnu/packages/python.scm: 20: 10 [#<procedure 2e685c0 ()>] In ice-9/boot-9.scm: 2667: 9 [define-module* (gnu packages python) #:filename ...] 2642: 8 [resolve-imports ((# # #) (#) (#) (#) ...)] 2580: 7 [resolve-interface (gnu packages base) #:select ...] 2505: 6 [#<procedure 2698940 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:2493:4 (name #:optional autoload version #:key ensure)> # ...] 2772: 5 [try-module-autoload (gnu packages base) #f] 2111: 4 [save-module-excursion #<procedure 2e6b6c0 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:2773:17 ()>] 2783: 3 [#<procedure 2e6b6c0 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:2773:17 ()>] In unknown file: ?: 2 [primitive-load-path "gnu/packages/base" #f] In gnu/packages/base.scm: 1055: 1 [#<procedure 2ecc020 ()>] In ice-9/boot-9.scm: 106: 0 [#<procedure 2825b40 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:97:6 (thrown-k . args)> unbound-variable ...] ice-9/boot-9.scm:106:20: In procedure #<procedure 2825b40 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:97:6 (thrown-k . args)>: ice-9/boot-9.scm:106:20: In procedure module-lookup: Unbound variable: gzip In algebra.scm, for instance, there is no problem. And it is also not a clash with the variable gzip in compression.scm, because renaming it does not help. Andreas
