The problem here is that when you create an installer, the Guix inside the image is the one defined in gnu/packages/package-management.scm (currently 1.1.0-4.bdc801e). Which works fine. But when you install a system using that Guix, it will install an _older_ Guix snapshot, from its embedded gnu/packages/package-management.scm, which is the broken 1.1.0-3.52b01cb. Probably we should make a new Guix snapshot to work around it. It's a fairly safe and easy operation, just run 'make update-guix-package' on a commit that is available on Savannah. Can you try it? :-) signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Could you run a "guix describe" just to be sure? Thanks, Mathieu

I just installed two servers with the installer image built from commit 2f49007dd076b14feb40d7c3331dee3e737265c8. Both of these servers boot just fine, but “guix pull” does not work. It fails with the following error: guix pull: error: glibc-bootstrap-system-2.2.5.patch: patch not found -- Ricardo
