Hi Alen,

> FAIL: ftw.test: file-system-fold: EACCES

Could it be that you=E2=80=99re running =E2=80=98guix-daemon=E2=80=99 as ro=
ot?  (This test is
known to fail in 2.0.7 and earlier when run as root.)

When doing so, it is highly recommended to use the =E2=80=98--build-users-g=
roup=E2=80=99
option: it instructs guix-daemon to run builds under users from that
group.

The normal setup is to have a dedicated =E2=80=98guixbuild=E2=80=99 group w=
ith (say) 10
users (=E2=80=98guixbld1=E2=80=99 to =E2=80=98guixbld10=E2=80=99).  The Nix=
 manual contains more
details:
<http://hydra.nixos.org/build/3560935/download/1/nix/manual.html#idp2452416=
0>.

HTH,
