Hi,
When running the example herebelow, from the guix shell documentation, an
error is returned:

guix shell --container --network --no-cwd ungoogled-chromium \
  --preserve='^DISPLAY$' -- chromium

[1:14:1118/140039.476338:ERROR:bus.cc(399)] Failed to connect to the
bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No

Hi Nicolas,

It seems you are running this command under Wayland and the person who wrote it did under X11.

Maybe try the same command under X11?

I'm using X11 and get the same error.

I don't know what's the appropriate way of running a contained browser, 
but the following command from my notes works to some extent:

guix shell -CN --no-cwd ungoogled-chromium fontconfig \
       -E "^DISPLAY$" -E "^XAUTHORITY$" --expose="$XAUTHORITY" \
       --expose=/tmp/.X11-unix/ --expose=$HOME/.Xauthority \
       --expose=/etc/machine-id --expose=/dev/dri \
       --expose=/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket \
       -- chromium --incognito

The browser starts, and I can browse the web, but there are lots of 
other error messages.

Also, I didn't take note on why I need to expose  all these resources, 
so be careful :)
