[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Currently the Guix Installer on Latest (13/11/2021-EU) is forcing gdm as session manager that just errors out with "Oh no!" following by useless error logs and messages that attempts to test your self control.

Proposing to implement an option to choose alternative session managers especially if the user selects non-GNOME desktop environment.
