Packaging Proton Bridge: cryptic compilation failure

[Marek Paśnikowski]

Hello Guix

I am towards the end of a first pass of packaging the Proton Bridge program to 
access my Proton Mail with KMail.

I have worked through and learned about many peculiarities of Golang build 
system.  As long as I had an error message, I was able to at least work around 
problems.  However, the latest build failure is completely cryptic to me, as 
its log contains zero error messages.  It works fine until I get a "build 
failed" summary:

Building 'github.com/ProtonMail/go-proton-api' failed.
[...]

The above is the result of this command:
$ guix build -v 3 -L ~/repositories/sovereign/ proton-bridge --cores=1

I have zero knowledge the Go language itself, which could explain why I have 
trouble understanding this failure.

I would very much appreciate any help from the resident Go packagers, as I am 
unable to make any further progress, and I desire to finally ditch the 
Proton’s web interface.

The entire package code is on my personal channel, in "proton-bridge" branch.  
There is one external dependency on the Efraim’s DFSG channel.
