Hi,

I just started using guix and have only used `guix pull` and `guix search` so far. I used `guix pull` successfully a few days ago, and decided to rerun it today to see if it takes less time, and it resulted in a stacktrace (attached).

This is a foreign-distro install on Debian 10 Buster. It's running inside a 'crostini' lxc vm built into ChromeOS.

Also, while I'm here, I read about `guix shell` and it was the primary motivation for me to install since I wanted to do a project-specific dependency configuration, but after following the instructions in [1] running `guix shell` says `guix: shell: command not found`. I have tried `guix search` with various patterns (`shell`, `guix.*shell`, etc…) but I haven't been able to find out how to install it. Furthermore [1] introduces it, so I am confused if I missed some critical setup step, even though I followed the install section. Any advice?

Hi Nathan,

I believe this was caused by a network issue (&nar-error). We lost our main server for a few hours when you tried running guix pull.

Could you try again and report success/failure?

Thanks for reporting the issue! It's much appreciated :)
