“inappropriate ioctl for device ” when running in RStudio Server
(address . bug-guix@gnu.org)

When running “guix” in RStudio Server the “terminal-window-size”
procedure triggers an error. (You can ignore the cause of the error,
because I’m running this in a container where
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/rekado doesn’t exist.)
Toggle snippet (38 lines)
> system("/bin/guix pull")

Here yousee that the call to terminal-window-size fails because the
RStudio Server IDE in the web browser is not a true TTY.
“terminal-window-size” should fail gracefully.
