Folaht’s second attempt to build a package on Guix system

Guix
1

Note: I’m doing a lot of reshuffling. This will be my attempt to fully create the ant package, while I’m busy with package attempt #1, building a smaller portion ant-client.

During my attempt to build the fetchit package, I was the error of not finding the ant-core package. And if it relies on ant-core, then I would likely want to install the ant-client package first. So here’s below has been my attempt so far:

ant-core.scm

;;; 2026 Yrop <folaht@protonmail.com>

(define-module (yrop packages ant core)
  #:use-module (guix build-system cargo)
  #:use-module (guix git-download)
  #:use-module ((guix licenses)
                #:prefix license:)
  #:use-module (guix packages))

(define-public ant-client
  (package
    (name "ant-core")
    (version "0.3.0")
    (source
     (origin
       (method git-fetch)
       (uri (git-reference
             (url "https://github.com/WithAutonomi/ant-client")
             (commit (string-append name "-v" version))))
       (sha256
        (base32 "016qbrhhrbqxla1r5wcmik01kcn3r8dami7prm4pzxj3ilnynba5"))))
    (build-system cargo-build-system)
    (synopsis "Autonomi Network Client")
    (description "A unified CLI and Rust library for storing data on the Autonomi decentralized network and managing Autonomi nodes")
    (home-page "https://aunotomi.com")
    (license (list license:asl2.0 license:expat))))

ant-client

But I’m stuck with a weird error:

$ guix build -f ./client.scm
...

As a reminder, you're using offline mode (--offline) which can sometimes cause surprising resolution failures, if this error is too confusing you may wish to retry without `--offline`.

Wait… ant-node?

Sometimes the information in there can help.
