Thank you for your patch. However it is merely a workaround: "~/src/guix" _is_ an absolute path. I think there's a problem upstream. However, emacs-geiser-guile package was updated a few times since your bug report. Maybe the issue is already fixed. Could you confirm it? Regards,

Maybe the issue is already fixed. Could you confirm it? This is still an issue, despite the recent updates. I'm still as baffled as I was when I reported. How could I investigate this further? Thanks. Let me restate the issue for the sake of clarity. Write the s-exp below to a file, let's call it test-emacs-guix.el. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (with-eval-after-load 'geiser-guile (add-to-list 'geiser-guile-load-path "~/path/to/guix/checkout/")) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ emacs -nw -q -l test-emacs-guix.el --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- M-x guix RET p ; n. The Guix REPL raises the error mentioned in my previous message. When I change the path to /home/$USER/path/to/guix/checkout, the REPL is successfully started. -- André A.

Have you tried to contact Geiser's author? They may have at least a clue about this. Regards,

No meaningful conclusion. Closing.
