(guix pki) has:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define %acl-file
(string-append %config-directory "/acl"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
where (guix config) does:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define %config-directory
;; This must match `NIX_CONF_DIR' as defined in `daemon.am'.
(or (getenv "NIX_CONF_DIR") "@guix_sysconfdir@/guix"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
So most likely the ‘NIX_CONF_DIR’ environment variable is defined on
your system, and ‘guix archive’ simply honors that.
Can you confirm?
Now, we’ve honored those ‘NIX_’ variables mostly because the daemon
code, which comes from Nix, uses them, and I initially didn’t want to
diverge. Nowadays it would probably make sense to rename them.
> Also, /gnu/store is set to only have 1770 permissions instead of 1774,
That’s not what I see:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ tar tvf guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz |grep /gnu/store/$
drwxrwxr-t root/root 0 1970-01-01 01:00 ./gnu/store/
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Which installation method did you use?
> which means you can't use any of your guix symlinks with 0.9.0 :/
What do you mean by “your guix symlinks”?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
