Subject: Guix resets passwords on reconfigure
Date: Sat, 25 May 2019 14:32:42 -0300

My user and root passwords have been reset about 3 times in 4 days upon running guix system reconfigure.

I can't seem to recognize any pattern, it appears to occur randomly, and it requires setting passwords manually. 

The password is left blank, and could be a security issue, as anybody would be able to access the root account easily.
