Re: Guix on other distros: Gentoo. [You run Gentoo? Please help testing.]
Hi,
I don't like to leave questions open. What if someone else finds this in
the future and wonders how we solved it? Find the answer below.

This is how lynX worked around it for my ebuild:
pkg_setup() {
enewgroup guixbuild
g=0
for i in `seq -w 0 9`;
do
enewuser guixbld$i -1 -1 /var/empty guixbuild;
if [ $g == 0 ]; then
g="guixbld$i"
else
g="$g,guixbld$i"
fi
done
# For some strange reason all of the generated
# user ids need to be listed in /etc/group even though
# they were created with the correct group. This is a
# command that patches the /etc/group file accordingly,
# but it expects perl to be installed. If you don't have
# perl installed, you have to do this manually. Adding a
# dependency for this is inappropriate.
perl -pi~ -e 's/^(guixbuild:\w+:\d+):$/\1:'$g'/' /etc/group
}
With the current version I was able to build+install "hello". What's now
missing is fixing the service, otherwise you can safely run Guix on
Gentoo.

I probably should've asked for help here earlier, the first commit of
guix in the overlay was probably some time back in january, but only now
you do no longer require the workarounds for outdated guile on gentoo we
had, so less annoyance if you don't run many test VMs.
The disfunctional thing currently is:
guixbuilder01 ... guixbuilder10 get created and added to guixbuild
group.
Post-setup I let root authorize hydra's pubkey, then I run
`rc-service start guix' which sadly makes the terminal unusable if you
don't append "&".
running guix pull then as root downloads happen, but as soon as builder
should start, it fails:
shikahr ~ # guix pull
Starting download of /tmp/guix-file.RpedfI

I know the openrc service is total crap because if you don't kill every
instance of guix-daemon before shutdown/reboot, you have almost 30
minutes delay.
OpenRC services are not my favorit thing to write, but it should just
work.
Also strange enough a sequence from 1 - 10 in ebuild creates users 01 -
10.

Guix on other distros: Gentoo. [You run Gentoo? Please help testing.]
TL;DR: Guix on Gentoo, need testers with moar isolated Gentoo VMs/systems. Don't blame me when it breaks your precious system, I said I needed testers. Hi, Since Gentoo upstream decided to finally solve their very old #355355 bug on ~20:00 UTC today, I take this opportunity to clean our Gentoo overlay from ebuilds we needed for guix so far and ask for potential testers. For people interested in debugging and participation: Guix is now available from within Gentoo for a while already, as a development (request for debugging help) package.
