bug#34427: address@hidden segfault?

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello Efraim,

Efraim Flashner <address@hidden> skribis:

To be clear, I believe this is for a *cross-compiled* Guile, right?

The natively-built binary on x86_64-linux works fine:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ unshare -mrf chroot $(guix build guile-static-stripped) ./bin/guile --version
guile: warning: failed to install locale

Since I saw a build failure similar to the one you mention when
cross-building for GNU/Hurd, I’m tempted to think this has to do with
cross-compilation.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
