Ah, that makes sense! I assume this is only true if it's properly in a profile (either guix home profile or the system profile) as opposed to being added as a user-level shepherd service not inside my home directory. I was planning to do the latter, since I'm not sure how to properly describe the vm in a manifest (though I imagine I could examine the source code for `guix system vm` to find out). > Another solution would be to make it a gc root, which you can do by > symlinking it in /var/guix/gc-roots Perfect, that seems to work great! Thanks a ton!
