Hi Matthieu & Simon,

Matthieu, how did you install guix-daemon?

The daemon provided in the binary installation tarball at
<https://guix.gnu.org/en/download> has supported lzip for a few years
already.  Likewise if you’re on Guix System.

So I suspect that’s a custom installation where lzip support is somehow
missing, which can be a problem (ci.guix.gnu.org dropped gzip,
supporting only zstd + lzip, back in February.)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
