Hi, This is not related to #40549.
The short option "-L ~/…" works, since thin this case the shell resolves the tilde. Whereas for the long-option the shell does not revolve the tilde, since the tilde is in the middle of the argument. Yu can verify this yourself easily: $ python -c 'import sys; print(sys.argv)' ~ ['-c', '/home/hartmut'] $ python -c 'import sys; print(sys.argv)' -L ~ ['-c', '-L', '/home/hartmut'] $ python -c 'import sys; print(sys.argv)' ---long=~ ['-c', '---long=~'] Proposed solution: After processing options, guix need to "expanduser()" (as it is called in Python) on all arguments which are paths. -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | h.goe...@crazy-compilers.com | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible |
