Re: Audio/sound (ALSA) in guix environment --container

[Pierre Neidhardt]

I've just "guix pull"ed and I get the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
> guix environment --container --ad-hoc coreutils shadow 
# id
uid=0(ambrevar) gid=0(users) groups=0(users),65534(overflow)
# groupadd audio
groupadd: PAM: Critical error - immediate abort
# useradd foo
useradd: PAM: Critical error - immediate abort
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Any idea where to go from here?

What about defaulting to 1000?  It's rather common, so I guess that
would be anonymous enough and "just work".
