Re: Attempting to Authorize Substitutes : Permission denied Issue

Carl, thank you.

I didn't realize sudo only acted on the first part and stopped at <.   I remembered > and | but forgot about <.  

Executing su with sudo...cool!  I will remember this.

address@hidden ~]$ sudo su

address@hidden user]# guix archive --authorize < ~root/.guix-profile/share/guix/hydra.gnu.org.pub

warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument

address@hidden user]# exit

exit

address@hidden ~]$ sudo ls -l ~root/.guix-profile/share/guix/hydra.gnu.org.pub

-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 1083 Dec 31  1969 /root/.guix-profile/share/guix/hydra.gnu.org.pub

This also works for me on my GNU\Linux OS, but sudo su seems much more useful with multiple commands.

address@hidden ~]$ sudo -- sh -c 'guix archive --authorize < ~root/.guix-profile/share/guix/hydra.gnu.org.pub'
