I would strongly recommend to update everything at the same time: guix package -u . guix install: error: profile contains conflicting entries for glib guix install: error: first entry: [email protected] /gnu/store/762g48vi94gkj9s9mhpbp84hm8ggfmky-glib-2.86.0 guix install: error: ... propagated from [email protected] guix install: error: ... propagated from [email protected] guix install: error: ... propagated from [email protected] guix install: error: second entry: [email protected] /gnu/store/25dylanmcbv8jxmljznhjhjra14rz11q-glib-2.86.0 guix install: error: ... propagated from [email protected] guix install: error: ... propagated from [email protected] guix install: error: ... propagated from [email protected] hint: You cannot have two different versions or variants of `mate' in the same profile. What is a bit strange is this double version of mate; how is this possible? Is there anything else that propagates mate? Apart from that, mate and catfish work together; I tried to run guix shell -C mate catfish and it succeeds. Andreas
