I still face this problem on one or two machines. I am running a standard setup. Not sure what it is.

I'll simply reinstall Guix on these machines and start building a recent tree. > Thanks in advance! > > Ludo’. > > l...@gnu.org (Ludovic Courtès) skribis: > > > Hi Pjotr, > > > > Pjotr Prins <pjotr.publi...@thebird.nl> skribis: > > > >> Not completely sorted.
