Re: "user with UID not found" error

[Christopher Batten]

Well ... we tried running NSCD and set it up to cache passwd and group but I am 
still getting the "user with UID 317241 not found" warnings and cannot use 
--container with shell.

We must not have something setup correctly ... I will have to look into this 
more later this fall. We can still use guix we just have that warning and 
cannot take advantage of the --container argument to shell or guix pack.

I really appreciate everyone's help and we definitely have learned something!
