Hi,

As discussed on IRC, it is not mentioned in the manual. What the manual
describes is:
./bootstrap
./configure --localstatedir=/var/
make
therefore, if one runs:
./pre-inst-env guix pull
then the sysconfdir is set to /usr/local/etc because it is the default.
And so it leads to subtle differences really hard to guess. I think it
is worth to add one sentence or footnote at the end of the section
«Running Guix Before It Is Installed», right after:
Note that ./pre-inst-env guix pull does not upgrade the local
source tree; it simply updates the ~/.config/guix/current
symlink (see Invoking guix pull). Run git pull instead if you
want to upgrade your local source tree.
Something like: «Note that ’guix pull’ preserves the settings of the host
Guix, for instance ’sysconfdir’, and by default the GNU standards set
’prefix’ to ’/usr/local/’ and ’sysconfdir’ to ’$prefix/etc’, whereas
regular Guix uses ’--sysconfdir=/etc/’.»
WDYT?

The produced tarballs have the same Guix hash, i.e., all the same
inputs, but not the same outputs, compare with commit b9a54aa:

And diffoscope returns these differences, something about links, IIUC:

(Slightly edited to ease the reading, and raw at
<https://paste.debian.net/1183728/>.)
On machines A and C, empty file because hard link. But on machine B,
the files are there. Tiny files I guess, the size difference is:
23104 vs 23136.
Cheers,
