ArchLinux installers of guix should be aware that the standard size of
/tmp on a 4 GB computer is too small for a full install of guix.
Please enlarge your swap file and resize /tmp to like 20 GB, else
you will repeatedly break during
guix package -i hello
After those mods I successfully ran guix on Manjaro (Arch derivate).

Or you can set TMPDIR variable for guix-daemon.

What exactly goes wrong when /tmp is less that 4 GB? There are a handful
of packages that require more than 4 GB of storage while building, but I
don't believe any of them are required to build hello.

I believe the problem was that one line was missed during install and
then no binary install was made, everything was built instead. sth.
about auth or such.
