The problem is that the (gnutls) module is not in the search path of
=E2=80=98guix substitute=E2=80=99.

Usually the solution is to start the daemon using something like:

  sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon =E2=80=A6

so that =E2=80=98guix-daemon=E2=80=99 inherits the correct values for =E2=
=80=98GUILE_LOAD_PATH=E2=80=99,
etc.

Does that work for you?

We used to have this suggestion in the doc, but it was reverted in
commit 73a203450d21241eca50375aeb26fb418b287414.  Leo, do you think we
can reinstate it?  I=E2=80=99m not sure why it was reverted in the first pl=
ace.

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
