The relevant part of my system configuration is: (users (cons (user-account (name "guix") (group "users") (supplementary-groups '("wheel" "netdev" "audio")) (home-directory "/home/guix")) %base-user-accounts)) Reconfiguring and rebooting does not switch the shell for root. The root user's shell is still zsh. I know it is the zsh by it's prompt string. zsh is not listed as a package in the system configuration or the root user's manifest. `which zsh` zsh not found The line for root in /etc/passwd end with the shell: /gnu/store/ia34lsanp33vaf32yhw2nnpnm2pc2g1y-zsh-5.6.2/bin/zsh Any ideas of how I can get the root user's shell switched from zsh to bash?
