bug#44999: guix deploy Error reading from the channel

[Jérémy Korwin-Zmijowski]

Hello Guixters,

I am trying to deploy a system on DigitalOcean droplet using `guix
deploy`. But I am facing the following issue :

   $ guix deploy ynm-machine-declaration.scm 
   La (1) machine suivante sera déployée :
     ynm

   guix deploy: déploiement vers ynm...
   ;;; [2020/12/02 00:15:48.683027, 0] read_from_channel_port: [GSSH
   ERROR] Error reading from the channel: #<unknown channel (freed)
   7f3ca3ef80a0>

Then I decided to Ctrl-C the process.


Sometimes I did ssh to the target to see if I can see proof that things
were doing ok (for example if the infect script is created in the tmp
directory...). And I noticed I had to delete the ssh key of the target
on my laptop to ssh again...

   ssh-keygen -f "/home/jeko/.ssh/known_hosts" -R "159.89.21.175"

Then, on the target machine guix seems to be installed. I am able to
run `guix pull`. But the packages I wanted to be globally installed
were missing.

On the laptop I deployed from:

   $ guix --version

On the droplet after guix pull:

I have no clue how to provide more info (logs, traces, …) but I would
be very happy to do so if anyone can lead me a bit on that.

Cheers,
