Re: Error using gcc with trivial-build-system

[Sergiu Ivanov]

Hi,

I have little experience with Guix packages, but I ran into a similar
issue using guix shell --pure recently, and I believe that you need to
add glibc to your dependencies.

I suppose that guix shell works for you because you already have glibc
available in the active profile.  I'd expect guix shell --pure to fail
with the same error.

HTH,
