installer networking: Connman detects no technologies on Acer Aspire |

On my Acer Aspire 5738PG the GUI installer for 1.1.0-rc2 fails at
automatic network setup. It tells me the install process required
Internet access. Manual setup of networking via “ip link set
enp0s29f7u1” and “dhclient enp0s29f7u1” works fine; I can ping
gnu.org. This is true for both a USB Ethernet adapter that works fine
with Guix on other computers and is true for built-in non-USB
Ethernet.
It appears the Guix installer uses Connman for network setup.
On the Acer Aspire the output of connmanctl is
Error getting peers: The name net.connman was not provided by any .service
filesError getting technologies: The name net.connman was not provided by any
.service files
connmanctl>
while on my Macbook the output of connmanctl is just a prompt
connmanctl>
What could be the reason? Note that I booted the Acer Aspire from DVD
making it even slower than usual.
Regards,
Florian

Right, we’ll make another release eventually. :-)
Now to tag and start “make release” so it can run overnight…
