Another option is =E2=80=98guix style -S arguments=E2=80=99: . Not an immediate fix, but a tool that would let us move away more quickly from a situation that=E2=80=99s pr= one to this kind of error.

Woow, that=E2=80=99s a lot! Could you send a sample of that list, for one system type, to get an idea of what=E2=80=99s going on? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
