Hello Guixers,
Here is an end-to-end tutorial for running Guix XFCE on CentOS 7:
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/running-a-guix-xfce-desktop-on-centos-7/
It has only been tested on a special CentOS "appliance", but should be
easily adaptable to other systemd-based distributions.
Please share you

There’s no test suite for “guix deploy” as a whole, but there are tests
for things it relies on in tests/gexp.scm and gnu/tests/reconfigure.scm.

It should happily be building packages for armhf and aarch64. It's
one of the build slaves of berlin.
Cool, I'm in Paris, if no one is particularly interested, I can probably
adopt the overdrive then! :)
To anyone more interested than me: don't hesitate to chime in!

Fantastic, this is a very welcome tutorial to help spread Guix among
users on foreign distributions.
I vote for adding it to the cookbook! :)

Hi!
Because it’s always been this way! :-)
This is inherited from Nix. The rationale is that there’s no home
directory in build environments, and perhaps Eelco Dolstra and others
back then found that setting ‘HOME’ to a non-existing directory broke
fewer builds that leaving it unset.
