This worked like a charm! Thanks a lot, both for the fix and for the
packaging. :)

I would guess the client can’t find the daemon on foreign
distributions, for some reason, and therefore isn’t able to start it.
But I don’t know how the insides work. :/

You can try running the daemon manually:
1. get the path to libring by running "guix build libring"
2. You are going to get something like this, copy and paste it to a
terminal
/gnu/store/lymcxmd0k50n8wg89yns34fpw6li2md1-libring-20200710.1.6bd18d2
3. Add "/lib/ring/dring" at the end:
/gnu/store/lymcxmd0k50n8wg89yns34fpw6li2md1-libring-20200710.1.6bd18d2/lib/ring/dring
4. Run it.

Then your client should be able to connect to the daemon.

If anyone has any idea why Jami doesn't start on external
distributions, please tell me.

On the command line, I just run ‘jami’. ‘whereis jami’ points to
‘/gnu/store/[…]’. The same problem occurs when I run ‘jami-gnome’
(which is also located in ‘/gnu/store/[…]’ and has a desktop entry in
my menu).

I think ‘jami’ is just supposed to run ‘jami-gnome’, though.

(Sorry for double reply; the list got left out the first time around.)
