If you look at ‘child-shell-environment’ in (guix scripts environment), it runs this in the child shell: env || /usr/bin/env || set; echo GUIX-CHECK-DONE; read x; exit If the shell prints non-newline-terminated stuff before the output of ‘env’, the first line of ‘env’ would be swallowed by the parser below. Could you run: strace -o log -s 500 guix shell --check -D guix to see exactly what ‘guix shell’ reads? If there’s nothing obvious, you know the story: we can always add ‘pk’ calls in ‘child-shell-environment’. :-) Thanks, Ludo’.
