Hi Guix,
Following commit 93474f92886fac8a2e5eb0eb3b388654246d640d (cc'ing Ludo'
as the author of this commit), I have identified build failures in
several packages as they have tests that require modifying the build
tree in some way. These include scons, ruby and go. I'm sure there are
other packages that are affected by this. We can patch out these tests
if it is simply untenable to change the daemon in the pursuit of more
security, but disabling tests is not so favorable in my opinion. I don't
have any better suggestions regarding this but I think it should be
bought to attention nonetheless, as these build failures have many
dependent packages - if these packages need to be rebuilt for some
reason it will be more pain to fix later than now.
