bug#33343: Error bind mounting `/dev/full' to /gnu/store/... on reconfigure.

[Brendan Tildesley]

I'm trying to reconfigure with the latest guix after 2 months. I'm able

to build my system with guix system vm, but when I try to reconfigure I
get the following error. I tried removing ecryptfs-utils from my
configuration, but then I just get the same error with a different store
item. i have   80GiB of free space, and according to tune2fs, 50 million
free inodes.

|guix system: error: build failed: |   |   |   bind mounting `/dev/full' to `/gnu/store/6cnyn2ygaa4h4hmfvy4g4kriv6w61ci8-ecryptfs-utils-111.drv.chroot/dev/full'


I also encountered:

I deleted all my backup profiles, ran guix gc, and these errors went
away after running it a few times.

Please see <https://issues.guix.info/issue/31023>, which is about the
same issue.

In short: don’t use ‘--verbosity’.

Thanks,
