Wow, I thought that the same tar was used the one provided by Guix and not by the host. For sure the default tar are not the same on both machine (v1.30 for Debian and v1.29 for Ubuntu). What is the md5sum checksum of ’guix pack -f docker hello’ on Guix System for commit b9a54aa? Thanks for the help, simon
