bug#54546: failed to compute the derivation for (very old) Guix
Hi Maxime, sorry for this late reply! I solved my problem with an ugly workaround: installing the Debian provided guix package and temporarily using that updated daemon in the systemd service, so I was able to upgrade to an updated Guix (since the package in Debian is not up to date with upstream) Maxime Devos writes: > Giovanni Biscuolo schreef op do 24-03-2022 om 16:23 [+0100]: [...] >> I get the meaning of "stubbing" but I don't know how to code in Guile, >> sorry ? cannot help here > > Ok, I've tried something in the attached patch (completely untested).

I did not get it before your suggestion! :-O IMHO this should be the default way to upgrade root's (or any othe user with an out of date Guix) guix-daemon installation [...] Bug closed, thanks!

Likewise, it could be modified to stub (ice-9 exceptions) when 'guile-version' refers to a pre-(ice-9 exceptions) Guile. According to Guile's NEWS, (ice-9 exceptions) is new in 3.0.0, so the stubbing needs to be made conditional on guile-version<3.0.0. Additionally, I'm looking into reducing the number of imports and cycles, so possibly the situation will resolve itself eventually.
