I wonder, can anyone else reproduce the wired connection failure? It worked for me with the graphical installer. It would be a shame to release with a bug that breaks wired connections in the installer. > 2.1.

Why does `git clone' fails when I'm installing guix > system? Weird, we need to look into that. I wonder if it's related to '$GIT_SSL_CAINFO'? Or something else about find the X.509 certificates? Check here for more info on that: https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/X_002e509-Certificates.html I also found some suggestions regarding $GIT_EXEC_PATH needing to be set. It would be nice to somehow offer "fetch a remote config.scm" within the graphical installer.
