Well, this message comes from the Guix daemon (see nix-daemon.cc file): /* Open the store. */ store = std::shared_ptr<StoreAPI>(new LocalStore(reserveSpace)); if (userId != (uid_t) -1) { /* Create the user profile. */ struct passwd *pw = getpwuid(userId); if (pw != NULL && pw->pw_name != NULL) store->createUser(pw->pw_name, userId); else printMsg(lvlInfo, format("user with UID %1% not found") % userId); } Hum, that’s not clear for me. The daemon is a beast… Maybe this has an impact. For sure, aside Guix, I think it would be better to fix it. :-) Well, I do not know why but this other message: > When I create the user home dir manually, the "guix pull" work's fine. > So the trouble could come from a disorder with the automatic home dir > creation. > I wish it's the right track. I keep digging. spots the light on UID. :-) Cheers, simon
