Following the instructions from the "Chrooting into an existing system"
section of the manual, the resulting chroot fails to resolve hosts, e.g.

Toggle snippet (3 lines)
ping gnu.org

fails

but

Toggle snippet (3 lines)
ping 9.9.9.9

works.

This means in particular that most guix commands fail within the chroot
since Guix uses hostnames by default.
