Subject: `guix pull` fails after fresh install
Date: Sun, 18 Jul 2021 23:13:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210718211348.xbrcvjzzou77m3g4@knurd> (raw)
Hello Guix Community!
I ran into an issue after freshly installing Guix System. When logged in
as a normal user, `guix pull` printed the following output:
Migrating profile generations to '/var/guix/profiles/per-user/user'...
guix pull: error: symlink: File exists: "/var/guix/profiles/per-user/user/current-guix"
`guix pull` was invoked before by root, but guix has not been called by the
unprivileged user before.
$ ls -l /var/guix/profiles/per-user/user/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user users 19 Jul 18 22:13 current-guix -> current-guix-0-link
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user users 19 Jul 18 22:43 guix-profile -> guix-profile-2-link
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user users 51 Jul 18 22:23 guix-profile-1-link -> /gnu/store/skvmv3zpzd06pj0jq57m0xjvx0hdjnkr-profile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user users 51 Jul 18 22:43 guix-profile-2-link -> /gnu/store/mzn60p0kd8kiwdj9qqan73664yn6b0s0-profile
-rw-r--r-- 1 user users 0 Jul 18 22:40 guix-profile.lock
I tried:
* guix gc
* guix gc -R
* guix gc --referrers
* guix gc --verify
* guix gc --verify=repair
but to no avail.
Should I just delete current-guix? Link it to my current profile? Or the
system's profile?
Thanks in advance for your advice,
Gabriel
