Subject: downgrade issue on guix system
Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2021 12:38:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a6hsxxyv.fsf@h-brs.de> (raw)

Dear all,

I just wanted to install cups service on my guix system. I recofigured
the system without an error one hour ago (introduced seperate home
filesystem) and now, when I try to add the cups service (I did a guix
pull in between as well) I get:

> guix system: error: aborting reconfiguration because commit bd2aa8031babdca5f574fca52e025d6794f08d82 of channel 'guix' is not a descendant of 7f974548ac20cab88b9bb589a5e1d85ee3b8d337
> hint: Use `--allow-downgrades' to force this downgrade.

I have no clue what caused that error therefor I also don't know if it's
a good idea to allow downgrades. ... or what es to do to resolve the
issue.

Cheers,

Alex
