Another thing we may want to change is /root/.config/current to
/root/.config/guix/current like in the $HOME/.config/guix/current.

So, I am trying all options, even when running guix-daemon from
/home/pjotr/.config/guix/current i get the same error. E.g.,

  /home/pjotr/.config/guix/current/bin/guix-daemon --build-users-group=guixbuild

The environment for the daemon is

root@penguin2:~/.config# set
  BASH=/bin/bash
  PATH=/home/pjotr/.config/guix/current/bin
  UID=0
  USER=root
  USERNAME=root

Running the client with

  env GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=../guix-bioinformatics/ /home/pjotr/.config/guix/current/bin/guix package -i gemma-dev-env --substitute-urls="https://berlin.guixsd.org https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org" -p ~/opt/gemma-dev-env 

(just so I have to build something)

It appears the daemon in /home/pjotr/.config/guix/current/bin/guix-daemon wants to pick up 
 
  /gnu/store/8ahlc84zaj0iw9jpsdpa9wx4ms0s9cma-guix-daemon-0.15.0-1.4876bc8/libexec/guix/download: line 8: /root/.config/current/bin/guix: Permission denied
  /gnu/store/8ahlc84zaj0iw9jpsdpa9wx4ms0s9cma-guix-daemon-0.15.0-1.4876bc8/libexec/guix/download: line 8: exec: /root/.config/current/bin/guix: cannot execute: Permission denied

Not sure what is happening here. Why is it looking in /root? And why is it
using a different non-pull version of guix
/gnu/store/8ahlc84zaj0iw9jpsdpa9wx4ms0s9cma-guix-daemon-0.15.0-1.4876bc8 which
is different from the one I am running? How does it look for this tool and find
it in the wrong path?

Even when symlinking /root/.config/current -> /home/pjotr/.config/guix/current I get the same error.
