Re: guix pull/guix upgrade often fails over VPN with TLS error message

[Thom R Harmon]

Just closing the loop on this...

So, nobody had any advice as to how to troubleshoot this and I stopped 
looking for root cause and started looking for a fix of any sort. Turns 
out that was to make sure nothing was using /gnu/store and then `rm -rf 
/gnu/* /var/guix` and re-install guix. All of the nodes which were 
exhibiting this behavior stopped doing so after a re-install.

My only theory is that there is something I am doing when managing the 
guix binary install that will occasionally result in the systems getting 
into this state. Perhaps something to do with the TLS libs.
