Hello,

Sometimes 'guix deploy' ends up failing near the end, with what looks
like:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix deploy: sending 180 store items (1,094 MiB) to 'myhost'...
[...] (progress bar)
guix deploy: error: failed to deploy mymachine: failed to start Guile on
remote host 'myhost'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Upon retrying the same 'guix deploy' command, it usually succeeds, e.g.:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix deploy: sending 8 store items (5 MiB) to 'myhost'...
guix deploy: successfully deployed mymachine
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks,

Maxim

I=E2=80=99ve seen it too, and I think it might be the same issue as describ=
ed
here:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/commit/?id=3Dcdef9=
30632d0a94b0d92bf4f5fc7227e75c6eb10

If that happens again, could you log in the target machine as root and
run:

  find ~/.cache/guile | xargs ls -lrtd

That way you=E2=80=99ll see if some .go files have just been compiled, and =
also
if there are temporary .go.XYZ files in there (stemming from an
interrupted compilation process due to the timeout.)

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
