Hi,
While attempting to deploy to overdrive1, using the 9971141 commit in
the maintenance repo, I encountered the following error:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
maxim@hurd ~/src/guix-maintenance/hydra$ guix time-machine
--commit=08d515233241ee0921b8b5ab706f98170c62437c -- deploy -L modules
deploy-overdrive1.scm
The following 1 machine will be deployed:
overdrive1
guix deploy: deploying to overdrive1...
guix deploy: sending 0 store items (0 MiB) to 'overdrive1.guix.gnu.org'...
guix deploy: sending 0 store items (0 MiB) to 'overdrive1.guix.gnu.org'...
guix deploy: sending 0 store items (0 MiB) to 'overdrive1.guix.gnu.org'...
guix deploy: error: failed to deploy overdrive1: failed to switch systems while
deploying 'overdrive1':
system-error "symlink" "~A" ("File exists") (17)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
It also looks like even the above failed to "deploy" fully, the system
generation was left as the last active one:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Which leaves me with two questions:
1. why did it fail?
2. when it encounters any error while deploying, shouldn't the
generation be removed instead of left as the active one?
Thanks,
Maxim
