Test failures in 3.0.0: "attempt to apply non-function"

Upgrading the Guix package for zip from 2.3.3 to 3.0.0 I see these new build failures:

I'm guessing this is due to the fact that webfakes is not in the build environment (due to a dependency cycle, as webfakes uses zip for a test). Perhaps these tests could be skipped when webfakes isn't available.

I am not sure what this is about, but if you want to test zip, then you indeed need to install webfakes.

Thanks for confirming. We'll skip these tests in Guix then.
