As mentioned I had removed all dependency for root "/" fs

but result is same

$ guix  system   build ~/tmp/config.scm
guix system: warning: the following groups appear more than once: users
guix system: error: service 'swap-/dev/mapper/guix-swap' requires
'device-mapping-guix-swap', which is not provided by any service

Then again removed all dependencies from all fs /var /gnu /tmp etc
But the result is the same.

$ guix  system   build ~/tmp/config.scm
guix system: warning: the following groups appear more than once: users
guix system: error: service 'swap-/dev/mapper/guix-swap' requires
'device-mapping-guix-swap', which is not provided by any service


Thanks
