The procedure ‘which’ from (guix build utils)
is used for two different purposes:
1. for finding the absolute file name of a binary
that needs to run during the build process
2. for finding the absolute file name of a binary,
for the target system (as in --target=TARGET),
e.g. for substituting sh->/gnu/store/.../bin/sh,
python->/gnu/store/.../bin/python.
When compiling natively (target=#f in Guix parlance),
this is perfectly fine.
However, when cross-compiling, there is a problem.
"which" looks in $PATH for binaries. That's good for purpose (1),
but incorrect for (2), as the $PATH contains binaries from native-inputs
instead of inputs.
This commit defines a ‘search-input-file’ procedure. It functions
like 'which', but instead of searching in $PATH, it searches in
the 'inputs' of the build phase, which must be passed to
‘search-input-file’ as an argument. Also, the file name must
include "bin/" or "sbin/" as appropriate.

PostgreSQL running with a different socket directory to the default one in the

Before this change, the 'gnu-build-system' phases were listed in the

The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports
with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet".
Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this
