I tried to install emacs on guix recently, and I actually got a kernel

Are you installing GuixSD, or are you installing Guix on another
distro?
I'm trying to install emacs on GuixSD, which is running on a Thinkpad
X200.
What does this command report (run as root):
guix substitute --help
This command just displays help text?
Do you know what substitute server is being used?
I don't know. I tried using guix substitute --substitute but I'm having
trouble identifying what the other two arguments should be.
Can you try:
guix build emacs --substitute-urls=http://mirror.hydra.gnu.org
It seems to have succeeded:
@ build-succeeded
/gnu/store/p5bhpqf6zj1kg55p4gyndrppswbskh8k-emacs-24.5.drv -
/gnu/store/35nvlacqcl3wv5al5lj3077h0hx4bn2q-emacs-24.5
After doing this, I tried doing "guix package -i emacs" again, and it
installed successfully! Thank you for your help; unfortunately I don't
know exactly what fixed this but I'd be happy to continue debugging if
it's of use to someone.
Thanks in advance!
Ludo’.
