Hi,

Hmm I don’t see this message in the GitLab log above, and I cannot
reproduce the problem:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix pack -f docker sed
/gnu/store/h2hdp469v3014b82qsvz5fkw00sfxdgh-sed-docker-pack.tar.gz
$ git log |head -3
commit 97fb1887ad10000c067168176c504274e29e4430
Author: Ashish SHUKLA <ashish.is <at> lostca.se>
Date:   Mon Jan 20 21:46:10 2025 +0000
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Could you try to come up with a command and commit that reproduces it?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
