[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi Folks,

When I try to install a Java-related package, like "icedtea", "clojure",
"ant" or "groovy" on my up-to-date GuixSD, it fails with an error like
this:

$ guix package --install=icedtea
guix package: error: build failed: opening file `/gnu/store/jm8abx8z95axza19alr0rkwkkv0x4ljr-langtools.tar.bz2.drv': No such file or directory

This has been happening for a couple of months, but I hadn't gotten
around to raising it.

Regards,
Ben

This sounds like you have a corrupted file system / store.

Try as root “guix gc --verify=repair,contents” to attempt to repair the
store contents.  Do this after running fsck on the file system.

Brillint, thanks Ricardo. Running `gc` solved my install issue.
