I've followed all the steps in the installation of GUIX at https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Binary-Installation.html#Binary-Installation but when I run
sudo ln -sf ~root/.guix-profile/lib/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl enable guix-daemon
it errors as
Failed to execute operation: Too many levels of symbolic links
The contents of ~root/.guix-profile/lib/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service looks correct. Only one symbolic link is involved.
What's wrong?
Update: I solved it by copying the file as
sudo cp -f ~root/.guix-profile/lib/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service /etc/systemd/system/
instead. It seems there's a limitation on the number of symbolic links.
Update: Next problem:
The command
sudo systemctl start guix-daemon
doesn't printing anything on stdout but the daemon is not created:
ps -fel|grep guix
returns nothing.
