Hi Guix,
guix offload error messages are cumbersome. With a help from guys on irc channel(many thanks), I finally manage it to work by installing guix and guile packages under the remote user.

machines.scm is ready, and here is my fist attempt to run offload test.

There is no errors in my local guix-daemon nor remote one. --debugs doesn't help either
Same thing with copy.

Guix says that my minion is running GNU Guile 3.0 which is for me a good sign, but apparently it is not.
I thought that guile 3.0 is an issues, so let's install guile-2. Here is my remote profile:

guix offload test fails with a diffrent error. I also tried to use #:log-verbosity 'protocol, but it doesn't help.

In the meantime copy fails differently:

guix copy: error: Guile modules not found on remote host 'minion100'

guix copy: error: unknown error while sending files over SSH

`copy from' check gives a hint, but even though I have GUIX_PROFILE defined in my .bash_profile:
Toggle snippet (5 lines)
aabramov@delta:~/factory/guix$ ssh minion100 tail -n2 .bash_profile
export GUIX_PROFILE=~/.guix-profile
source "${GUIX_PROFILE}/etc/profile"
for some reason I still don't have any GUILE_LOAD variables defined

[aabramov@minion100 ~]$ cat .guix-profile/etc/profile
# Source this file to define all the relevant environment variables in Bash

OK, I saw some notes about guile-ssh and decided to install it. It seems like guix adds GUILE_LOAD vars only when you install some guile libs.

So now I have all the vars in place, but the copy command still complains:
