Trying to build `gn-uploader` with
$ guix build -L /home/frederick/genenetwork/guix-bioinformatics gn-uploader
in my local development fails with:

Building on tux02 with the same commit raises the error

There is plenty of space on the tux02:
$ df -h /gnu /tmp Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/nvme1n1p5 117G 82G 29G 74% /gnu /dev/nvme1n1p2 30G 26G 2.1G 93% /
so we know that's not a problem.
A similar thing had shown up on space.uthsc.edu.
I have attempted to do ~guix pull~ in case the version of guix I had was the problem to no avail.
I have even attempted checking out
and creating a branch from it then
in the new branch, but I still get the same failures above.
In tux02, the issue was, after all, a lack of space. Fixed by telling the daemon to use a different directory on a partition with more space as its TMPDIR. That fixes the "No space left on device" error. We do that by adding the following to the systemd unit file for the guix daemon:
ENVIRONMENT='TMPDIR=/export/tmp'
Now the system fails with the same error as local dev.
I previously renamed `.guix/modules/gnqc-py.scm` to `.guix/modules/gn-uploader.scm` but forgot to update the symbolic link, and that lead to the error above. This has been fixed now.
The `etc/default_config.py` file was not being installed into the store for some reason, leading to the "No such file or directory" error.
I fixed this by moving the file into the `qc_app` module.
I renamed the file to "default_settings.py" for consistency with other GN services.
