Hello Guix,
It's been a while, so i apologise for asking what are probably dumb
questions.
Quite a while ago i ran into this issue where (it might have been after
a system upgrade including libc and such, i'm using git Guix on Arch
Linux) all binaries segfault.
I didn't really have time to look at it then, and now i'm trying to get
back on the Guix-horse. I've done `guix package -i ..` for a few
packages, some of which have and some of which haven't been updated in
the meantime, but the problem persists. Should i blow away the entire
/gnu/store and reinstall Guix from scratch, or can something be
debugged/salvaged? My debugging-fu is weak, so i might need pointers.
Hope this isn't too much PEBKAC for one afternoon!
Cheers,
p.

From what kernel version, to what kernel version have you moved?

Could you try running a program from your Guix profile using strace?
So, running it as normal, but then prepend "strace", like:
strace git log
It may help figuring out what goes wrong.
Maybe this question belongs to help-guix@gnu.org instead.
Kind regards,
Roel Janssen

Ah! I'll use that forum instead, thanks for the pointer. Sorry for the
spam.
