Hello, This command:
guix build guix -n takes long long time to finish. And I can see multiple lines like: substitute: guix substitute: warning: while fetching http://hydra.gnu.org/nix-cache-info: server is somewhat slow The result of that command is following: The following files would be downloaded: /gnu/store/3lg5c1nidbj0kjdz5b63hn3vp29kzf0s-guix-0.9.0.c3f29bc /gnu/store/6gl0rzlbzsq4nywr5ma9rnfyvs8mbsgq-guile-json-0.5.0 /gnu/store/bwfr534bsfgl2a0pmxxy1ck7lz7fplsb-gzip-1.6 Other information: I have used mirror.guixsd.org and it worked better, and I did got: gdk-pixbuf 2.32.3 out gnu/packages/gtk.scm:388:2 However, the reason why I needed it, is to install emacs. And what I expect is not what I get. Sadly, this is how my emacs look like. Notice that icons are missing. There are numerous gdk-pixbuf errors when opening it in console. https://rcdrun.com/images/upload/tmp/2016-03-14-10:14:22.jpg I am thinking like this and expecting it like this: - if I install gdk-pixbuf, the emacs shall start using it - if I remove emacs, and install it again, I shall get new version with gdk-pixbuf I am trying to find equivalent to: apt-get purge emacs, apt-get install emacs -- but with -r emacs, the problem does not just get solved. Currently, I need solution to install correct emacs. By using mirror.guixsd.org it works better on my side, but I have already tried. Nothing changed so far.
