Just a sidenote here, that I mentioned in #guix irc channel the other time. I tried to `guix pull` from the 0.11 USB installer, and it would fail because some package couldn't be substituted, module-import-compiled if I recall correctly. Guix suggested as normal, that `--fallback` flag should be used, which is a non-accepted flag for `guix pull`. I had to `guix system init --fallback`, until that package was built, and then `guix pull`. Not having run `guix pull`, building from source was failing anyway. Is this intented behaviour, or something to be fixed? Regards, -- Theodoros Foradis
