Subject: bug#54483: ‘guix system image’ chokes on host's /var
Date: Sun, 20 Mar 2022 20:26:51 +0100

Guix,

I can't build the older installer image I want, ostensibly because my 
installed system is too new (anno-post-apteryx-versioning; no time to 
further investigate I'm afraid).

I expect a self-contained system not to care and certainly not to crash.

~/guix ⌥  v1.3.0-15828-gd5b4ca4445 λ ./pre-inst-env guix system image -t 
iso9660 gnu/system/install.scm
guix system: warning: unrecognized boot parameters at
