[Andreas Enge]

Hello Efraim,

thanks for all your work on the patch - you should have added a
"Co-authored-by" line!

For me it also fails on x86_64, but due to a lack of disk space. The build
directory fills 12 GB!!!

$ du -h 
/tmp/guix-build-qtwebkit-5.212.0-alpha2.drv-0/build/lib/libQt5WebKit.so.5.212.0
2,6G    
/tmp/guix-build-qtwebkit-5.212.0-alpha2.drv-0/build/lib/libQt5WebKit.so.5.212.0

So apparently the resulting library has more then 2 GB?!

This is also suspicious. Where are these 6 GB of "Source" coming from?
The source of the package itself has only 13 MB.

All this time and space just to be able to read and convert a few ebooks!
