Hey Simon, sure thing.

I've attached "shaka.scm" here. I was able to build it separately (see "Howto supply cargo-build-system dependency to guix package definition"). That was using these commands.

guix import crate -r rustscan
guix build -L ~/dotfiles/ rust-rustscan-2


A. I re-ran "guix build". Note that I definitely installed (and sourced) perl and python3.

You will need to add perl and python to the native-inputs field of your rust-rustscan-2 package for it to see those two programs. When packages are built, the building happens in an isolated environment distinct from your shell environment, so packages you install through "guix package -i" or "guix install" won't be seen in the package's build environment. https://guix.gnu.org/en/manual/devel/en/html_node/package-Reference.html#package-Reference describes the various fields including three different types of inputs, but my rule of thumb is that if the package depends on and is linking to a library then the library package is an input, and if the dependency is a program that needs to be run as part of the build (such as the rustscan package trying to run perl and python3) it should be a native-input. HTH!

Cheers,

P.S. I've not packaged any rust code, but from what I recall rust packages that use cargo-build-system are a bit anomalous in that they have to declare the rust packages they depend on in a #:cargo-inputs argument instead of the normal inputs package field.

And updated my system with "guix pull && guix package -u". But now it's failing with the below.

guix build -L ~/dotfiles/ rust-rustscan

B. The idea is to include that package as part of a larger profile that I can add to my base user profile. That's using the below. rust-rustscan is defined in "guix/packages/shaka.scm".
And I get an error gain, when calling guix package

guix package -L ~/dotfiles/ -m ~/dotfiles/guix/packages/manifest.scm

Well, I am not sure these two lines are required.

It means your custom package rust-rustscan does not build.

Could you share your local file: ./guix/packages/shaka.scm containing
the definition of this custom package?
