Hello,

I tried to update my guix installation with `guix pull` but it failed.
As shell I use fish, System is Linux Mint 17.3.

If you need more information just ask, but probably I don't have any

This Guix was a bit old (from March 2017) and was using Guile 2.0
instead of Guile 2.2.

I'm not sure, but I'd guess the issue is related to the recent addition
of a dependency on guile-bytestructures [0].

The problem is that there was a time window in March where
‘guile-bytestructures’ was broken as can be seen above.  This prevents
upgrade here.  :-/

The workaround would be to first upgrade to the commit before the one
you gave:

  guix pull \
    --url=https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/snapshot/6fe5c49ab487154074eaab2ef80e9a2f8163320c.tar.gz

and then upgrade again:

  guix pull

Jonathan, are you able to confirm that this works or did you work around
it differently already?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Sadly I can't confirm if this work around works because I reinstalled
guix (I removed the broken one and did a clean new 0.13 installation).

Next time I'll wait until the mailing list gives me the right commit :)

No problem.  I’m closing the bug, with the understanding though that it
illustrates a “well-known” defect in ‘guix pull’.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
