Hi, I tried building guix from source, as described in the manual, from within a `guix environment guix` shell. I've seen this same problem on three separate computers, all installed with the binary distribution on top of Arch Linux. Steps to reproduce: 1. $ git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix.git && cd guix 2. $ guix environment guix 3. $ ./bootstrap && ./configure && make check Expected output: no test failures Actual output: tests/guix-pack.sh and tests/guix-pack-relocatable.sh both fail. Looking at the log, the same error is to blame: "unshare failed: Operation not permitted". The full log is attached.
