+Guix includes an AppArmor profile for the build daemon in
+@file{etc/apparmor.d/guix-daemon} that can be installed on systems with
+strict AppArmor policies to allow it to run unprivileged
+(@pxref{Build Environment Setup}).  Indeed, the unprivileged daemon makes
+use of Linux user namespaces but these are disallowed
+without an AppArmor policy on some systems like Ubuntu.
+
+To know if this applies to you, check if the
+@code{kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns} kernel parameter is
+enabled.
