Indeed, it is still the case with Guix 53f54d4:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix environment --ad-hoc mysql -C
[env]$ mysql_config
/gnu/store/babgwy3cvv851ddx7npvh9ick3fs0fgc-profile/bin/mysql_config: line 87:
sed: command not found
/gnu/store/babgwy3cvv851ddx7npvh9ick3fs0fgc-profile/bin/mysql_config: line 95:
sed: command not found
/gnu/store/babgwy3cvv851ddx7npvh9ick3fs0fgc-profile/bin/mysql_config: line 99:
sed: command not found
/gnu/store/babgwy3cvv851ddx7npvh9ick3fs0fgc-profile/bin/mysql_config: line 131:
cat: command not found
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
or another example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ cat $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT/bin/mysql_config | grep awk
file=`ls -l $file | awk '{ print $NF }'`
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and the package definition of ’mysql’ reads:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(native-inputs
`(("bison" ,bison)
("perl" ,perl)
("pkg-config" ,pkg-config)))
(inputs
`(("boost" ,boost-for-mysql)
("libaio" ,libaio)
("libtirpc" ,libtirpc)
("ncurses" ,ncurses)
("openssl" ,openssl)
("rpcsvc-proto" ,rpcsvc-proto) ; rpcgen
("zlib" ,zlib)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
To make it works, the packages ’coreutils’, ’sed’ and ’gawk’ should be
propagated. Right?
Could you comment on patch#50586 [1]? It should fix the issue.
