Hello!

Sergio Pastor Pérez <sergio.pastorperez@outlook.es> skribis:

Do you remember exactly under what circumstances it hangs?  I think
‘guix offload’ should handle that situation gracefully and we should fix
it if it does not.

Right now, it sets an initial connection timeout of 30s, which is quite
long but turned out to be necessary (see ‘open-ssh-session’ in (guix
scripts offload)).

Thanks,
Ludo’.
