Yes, in a separate terminal as

NIX_SUBSTITUTERS="" guix-daemon --build-users-group=nixbld

-rw------- 1 root root 0 Dez 10 23:30 30001

 

/etc/group contains a line

nixbld:!:30000:nixbld1,nixbld2,nixbld3,nixbld4,nixbld5,nixbld6,nixbld7,nixbld8,nixbld9,nixbld10

 

and /etc/passwd:

nixbld1:x:30001:65534:Nix build user 1:/var/empty:/noshell

...

nixbld10:x:30001:65534:Nix build user 10:/var/empty:/noshell

I find none of these:

strace ./pre-inst-env guix-build hello 2>&1 | grep fcntl | grep F_SETLKW

returns nothing.
