SystemD & Symbolic Links

Hi all,

I would like to use GUIX to organise my home directory but
unfortunately when I install GUIX it does not work because SystemD
(228 in my case) refuses to allow symlinks.

Specifically, "systemctl enable guix-daemon" fails with "Failed to
execute operation: Too many levels of symbolic links" (see [1]). Is
there a workaround for this? I suppose I could simply copy
guix-daemon.service into /etc/systemd/system instead of linking to it
but I'm not sure how many other things will fail because of this
symlink limitation.

Cheers,
Hilco
