On my cluster installation I ran “guix gc --list-dead” out of

readable by the
root user on the server where guix-daemon runs (ignoring local

resolved.
Please excuse my hijacking this thread: I have been trying out
configurations to get Guix working on the cluster I have access
to, without root access for the daemon, and one problem I ran into
is a curious bug when the store is on an NFS share. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-science/2021-03/msg00010.html
(Case 3).
In your setup, is the store on an NFS share? If so, did you do
anything special to get that working?
Best,
Sébastien
