Hello Guix,

I'm lacking investigation detail, but this seems worthy of reporting.

I had tested installing gnome-terminal from guix on top of a Debian
stable distribution, and was surprised that login would not longer work
(!)  until I 'guix remove gnome-terminal' from a TTY.

We should investigate why (such as in a VM).

Maxim
