Hi, I am trying to set up my own channel for some personal packages, and I do have some success to that end, but I am still experiencing issues:
TL;dr - short summary: my package: emacs-hide-comnt.scm (below) breaks my setup for "guix pull" (which otherwise works just fine without that package) my package emacs-hide-comnt.scm cannot be too bad either: I can build+install it just fine by hand. I am following the guix guide, and have stolen two packages from --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- https://github.com/jsoo1/guix-channel --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- namely emacs-dump.scm (which provides my-emacs-dump), and urweb.scm. I have set up my own git repo (with just these two packages for now) at: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- http://git.a-rx.info/channel --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- and (with a git-url) in my ~/.config/guix/channels.scm: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (cons (channel (name 'my-stuff) (url "git://git.a-rx.info/channel") (introduction (make-channel-introduction "56384c65b5d57606cd7ff3e2a4db1c99c24d7adf" (openpgp-fingerprint "99BB E77D 73AE 07B9 D4B0 CA2E 3384 11E5 6E09 31B5") )) ) %default-channels) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I can "guix pull" (I am using "--allow-downgrades" the first time here, as I have used channel my-stuff with a different inital commit before), anyway this works fine so far - guix pull does not complain about the my-stuff channel. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- rx@dell ~$ guix pull --allow-downgrades Updating channel 'my-stuff' from Git repository at 'git://git.a-rx.info/channel'... guix pull: warning: moving channel 'my-stuff' from 12ac4ab75c0b9dc247af3a65179c566e198d908d to unrelated commit 56384c65b5d57606cd7ff3e2a4db1c99c24d7adf Updating channel 'guix' from Git repository at 'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'...

Thanks in advance.
