The only thing I believe=20 to have changed is the "host version" portion of the error message. 'which guix' actually points to ~/.configu/guix/current/bin/guix. Should=20 this command yield a different value? I have actually not done anything regarding either guix-daemon or=20 offloading. The only things I did after the fresh install were a=20 reconfigure and passing a manifest file to 'guix package -m'. I may have misunderstood what Jakub wrote because I am unsure what a=20 transient failure is. The portion I believe to have understood=20 essentially says "try again later and it should work". I found the logs of 'compute-guix-derivation', but I was unable to see=20 anything meaningful opening the .drv.bz2 file in emacs. Am I doing=20 something wrong? I wont be on my guix machine for some days now but appreciate pointers.=20 :) Olivier On 05.06.2020 18:29, Ludovic Court=C3=A8s wrote: > Hi, >=20 > o.rojon@posteo.net skribis: >=20 >> Just to follow up: a roll-back does NOT solve the issue. >>=20 >> What I have tried: >> 1) roll-back via guix system roll-back (to the generation that was >> created upon system installation) >> 2) roll-back via guix package --roll-back (same) >> 3) (1) + (2) combined >> 4) boot into the generation created upon system installation. >>=20 >> In none of these cases was I able to run 'guix pull'. >=20 > Thanks for testing this. >=20 > Note that, if =E2=80=9Cwhich guix=E2=80=9D returns ~/.config/guix/current= /bin/guix,=20 > then > none of the rollbacks above can have any effect.
