Hi,

In a slight variation of section 3.7 of the Guix Manual ("After System
Installation"), I regularly do 

  guix pull

as a regular user (rx in my case), and then (using rx's guix command),
as root:

# /home/rx/.config/guix/current/bin/guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

(i.e. instead of using sudo, as suggested in the manual)

This combo used to work fine for me for quite a while. Now, since a few days,
having done my 

  guix pull

step (as user rx), which still works fine for me (updates my guix system), I get an error when
trying the above reconfigure step:

    root@pc ~# /home/rx/.config/guix/current/bin/guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

I have no clue - and I am fairly new to guix, and yet have many thing to learn - so bear with me, please -
I would prefer to make my next guix steps, however, having a working / up-to-date system. 

Thanks in advance.

To answer my own question (and for the record, or for anyone interested):

Doing "guix pull" as root, i.e. several cycles of

  # guix pull
  # guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm
  # reboot

really, all of them as root, did update my system enough, to make my
usual cycle work again, i.e.

(as a regular user rx)
  $ guix pull 

and then (as root):
  # /home/rx/.config/guix/current/bin/guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

works again for me, now. 

Thus, section 3.7 of the Manual, which suggests to  
"guix pull" only ever as a regular user, seems a bit too over-optimistic to me.

I still don't know exactly, what was causing this issue, but fine
with me, if I update my system as root once in a while.

Thanks,
  -A

I'm not sure why, but I think that guix system requires you to once run
guix pull as the root user.
