FIXED: rename name on line 9 of the first snippet, and use "my-hello" instead of "hello".
Inside a file named build.scm:
(define-module (build)
#:use-module (guix packages)
#:use-module (guix download)
#:use-module (guix build-system gnu)
#:use-module (guix licenses))
(define-public my-hello
(package
(name "hello")
(version "2.10")
(source (origin
(method url-fetch)
(uri (string-append "mirror://gnu/hello/hello-" version
".tar.gz"))
(sha256
(base32
"0ssi1wpaf7plaswqqjwigppsg5fyh99vdlb9kzl7c9lng89ndq1i"))))
(build-system gnu-build-system)
(synopsis "")
(description "")
(home-page "")
(license gpl3+)))
A plain build command didn't work:
$ guix build -L. my-hello
guix build: error: my-hello : paquet inconnu
But with an eval expression it did:
$ guix build -L. -e '(@ (build) my-hello)'
# works
