In the 1.3.0rc2 VM image, ‘guix describe’ prints nothing and exits with 0 (success). This is with /run/current-system/profile/bin/guix. ‘strace’ shows that it parses /run/current-system/profile/manifest, which does not contain provenance information.
“$(readlink -f $(type -P guix)) describe” prints what’s expected, with information from (guix config). This is a regression compared to 1.3.0rc1. Ludo’.
