Thanks for the report.

This web page [1] provides a clue.

Indeed, this first commit (6dffced0) failing is a merge.

This introduces a regression for the package ’dub’.

Find exactly which commit introduces the failure could be tricky using
regular bisect with good as b603554e and bad as e3196755e6 since the
history is quite complex and many substitutes are not available.

Moreover, even after burning some CPU, for many commits in this range,
Guix is simply not able to pull (or to ’guix time-machine --commit=’).
Well, ’git bisect’ says it could be any of 154 commits (see below) –
using this snippet:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
$ cat bisect.sh

ci=$(git log --format="%H" -1)
if guix time-machine --commit=$ci -- help ;then
guix time-machine --commit=$ci \
 -- build dub --no-grafts
exit $?
else
exit 125
fi

$ git bisect start
$ git bisect good 8d27e6a7
$ git bisect bad  e3196755e6
$ git bisect run ./bisect.sh
--8<---cut here---end--->8---


Well, the error message is:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
starting phase `build'
./build.sh: line 45: git: command not found
Could not determine a version with git.
Using existing version file.
Running ldmd2...
source/dub/semver.d(107): Deprecation: Usage of the `body` keyword is 
deprecated. Use `do` instead.
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

and I guess this ’ldmd2’ comes from the ’ldc’ package.  Therefore, let
consider,

--8<---cut here---start->8---
$ git log --grep=ldc --oneline -1
5a1ddd146b gnu: ldc: Update to 1.27.1.
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

and this commit is part of the “skipped” commits (see below).


BTW, note that ’rdmd’ is also broken.  Well, both ’dub’ and ’rdmd’ would
deserve an update.  But it implies to unknot some D packages bootstrap.



Note that the parent b603554ed0 builds fine.  So, waiting a complete
fix, you can still use:

guix time-machine --commit=b603554ed0 -- install dub ldc

D compiler installation ldc failed

[Martin Michel]

Hello again,

today I wanted to install the LLVM-based compiler `ldc` for the D programming 
language (along with its package management system `dub`).
This failed grossly:

```
$ guix install ldc dub
The following packages will be installed:
   dub 1.7.2
   ldc 1.27.1

substitute: updating substitutes from 'https://ci.guix.gnu.org'... 100.0%

  /gnu/store/gnc9jbwxwbplvpygb276p5fkp3q1l7v2-dub-1.7.2.drv

```

Unfortunately the tail of the log does not help me:

```

What to do in such cases? Any help is welcome!
