Strange! I found out the error was passed by the offload server, so it was complaining that it didn't trust my laptop! I added my laptop to authorized keys on the server, and then it works! `guix archive --authorize` complains that it should be set in the system configuration for Guix SD though, so I did that.
But /usr/local is a mystery. I tried deleting it, but a reconfigure added back /usr/local/guix/acl. And `guix offload` commands still uses (the now missing file) /etc/local/guix/machines.scm by default. A difference between our configurations is that I'm modifying build-machines in the original guix-configuration using modify-services. But that really shouldn't make any difference, should it?
