Hello everyone,

Well I'm happy to report that thanks to your advice I made some progress.
Using the scm file attached and the command :
*guix build -L /home/arnaud/guix_packages/gnu/packages/ -K -f
freefilesync.scm*
the build process starts as it should, the zip file is downloaded, checked
and unziped as needed, and the cpp files compile normally.
It stops at the configure script stage, apparently not finding the
configure command.
H
​ere is the relevant part :

This is surprising to me as, according to the manual
<https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Defining-Packages.html>,
configure is part of the usual set of tools found in the gnu build system.
Let met quote :
*"The (...) gnu-build-system represents the familiar GNU Build System,
where packages may be configured, built, and installed with the usual
./configure && make && make check && make install command sequence."*
I checked that bash, bash-minimal, bash-completion are all found in the
store (actually in 3 differents versions after guix puil I guess).

So again I rely on your knowledge, hoping to get through eventually.

Many thanks in advance

Arnaud

PS : I reworded the package name and description as per the guidelines.
