I’m pretty sure the building-from-source comes from grafts where the package replacements, for some reason, are not getting built by Hydra. I thought this had been fixed by b574cee361bdabf21f5506252b6a183dcfcd028d, but clearly it hasn’t. I’ll investigate tomorrow. > I also made a few other notes during the installation process: > > - The documentation mentions ipconfig to get the wired interface up, > but it isn't available in the image.

I’ve pushed a fix as aab322d909c0b4abec132ef7aff31c31a1208841 in the new ‘version-0.14.0’ branch (note that it changes the ABI of (gnu services ssh)). Thanks, Ludo’.
