it is a GNU system virtual machine. And I have this in /var/log/messages:

Jul 19 11:57:51 localhost vmunix: [4619013.095327] 
oom-kill:constraint=CONSTRAINT_NONE,nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0,global_oom,task_memcg=/,task=69h614ii57kpgn5,pid=16408,uid=1000

While this appears in the strace log:

16408 +++ killed by SIGKILL +++

So we have the culprit; not a Guix bug per se.

$ cat /proc/meminfo 
MemTotal:         997864 kB
MemFree:          679044 kB
MemAvailable:     817052 kB

It looks like 1GB of memory is not enough for "guix pull", which is
not nice. Has this been addressed in later commits? Is there a known
lower memory limit for using Guix?
