Hi everyone!

I downloaded the Guix for USB disk, booted from it, performed the instructions shown at Alt+F2 but replacing "guix system init ..." with:
$ guix pull
$ guix system --fallback --keep-failed init ...

Then, I ended up with a segfault as shown below:

Can anyone say if it is expected that there are two different
libarchives? Seems strange to me, and it immediately precedes the fault.

A quick `grep` in (gnu packages) didn't reveal any private libarchive
packages besides the graft replacement.

I think that can happen due to different graft orderings. It’s hard to
tell without knowing the exact package set, though.

This is scary. Eus, is it reproducible? That is, does it happen again
if you run:

guix build --rounds=4 \
/gnu/store/2fjf4zqh05lzg8sa7l865xvg4faqc5z4-libarchive-3.1.2.drv

?

Thanks,

Since I have already wiped the partition, I did everything from the beginning like what I have done when I encountered the segfault. This time, however, the problem did not appear.

I see that the grafting lines that appeared before the segfault message differ from the grafting lines in the successful run. In the failing one, there are 29 grafting lines. In the successful one, there are 17 grafting lines. Moreover, the grafting of /gnu/store/ciga1934crxdimj5s1gsnvh74rk24hnd-libarchive-3.1.2 and /gnu/store/ji2jgkbpl4nabwn70ax6y7kg99r7xzk7-libarchive-3.1.2 are reversed in the successful run although they both are still grafted one after another as before.

Other than that, in the failed run, I have the following line after segfault:
cannot build derivation `/gnu/store/6y3lqn4cfxsh4g87hrbmvvalip66n9hl-grilo-0.3.0.drv': 1 dependencies couldn't be built

In the successful run, however, ls -d /gnu/store/*-grilo-0.3.0.drv gives:
/gnu/store/cg3qlswny4242wc8f28maljd9yvwd5dd-grilo-0.3.0.drv
/gnu/store/qiwfbwn7a7cvf2lgqjlmkclwdrgl3fzz-grilo-0.3.0.drv

Any guess as to what actually causes the segfault?

I'd rather have you pursue this matter further, but if it is not worth the effort, I am okay if this report is dismissed.

OK, this is weird. The segfault would be a Guile bug, something that
should never happen. I’ve never seen it before though, so we’d need
more data to investigate.

I’m closing this bug and we can reopen it when we have more info.

Thanks,
