With the last update of core packages they broke guix and it can no
longer be used, every time I run it I get the following error:

/gnu/store/s4pajb5dkar0ig5z572nxkp04sizhp7q-guile-wrapper/bin/guile:

with guix pull --roll-back you can return to using plaster, but with
plaster pull it breaks again.

Thanks

Hi Edison,

I've had the same issue on my side, turns out you'd better rebuild
system, home and reboot after the pull that includes core-updates. You
should be good to go after that.

Could it be that the ‘LD_LIBRARY_PATH’ environment variable is set?

What happens if you do:

  unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH; guix build hello

?

Currently this is the value I have in this environment variable:

EnvPath(
['/home/arkhan/.guix-profile/lib']
)

Subject: unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH confirmed as good workaround

[message.txt (text/plain, inline)]

Running a few guix-managed applications on top of a generally Ubuntu
system here.  As of today, am getting the same error message as
Edison, both when trying to run guix pull and when trying to run
individual applications.  Can confirm that following Ludo's suggestion
"unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH" makes the problem go away, but only for things
launched from the same terminal where I ran the unset command.
(Suspect that trying to unset the environment variable more globally
would bork the underlying Ubuntu system.)

OK, and what happens if you do:

   unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH; guix build hello

? Does it work?

In general, I strongly recommend keeping ‘LD_LIBRARY_PATH’ unset;
setting it is like opening a can of worms.

Thanks Ludo, by removing the value configured in LD_LIBRARY_PATH you can
rebuild the entire system without problems and Guix worked well again.

I can also confirm: I was having this same problem on the same update 
and unsetting LD_LIBRARY_PATH also fixed it for me. I was then able to 
run `guix pull` and everything was good again.

Thanks Ludo for the fix! I wonder how LD_LIBRARY_PATH got set in the 
first place? I'm running Guix system.

Thanks,

Preston

No idea.  Perhaps you could:

  grep LD_LIBRARY_PATH \
    /run/current-system/profile/manifest \
    ~/.guix-home/profile/manifest

… for the offending system and user profile generations.
