My initial installation via the .deb package works well on my Debian (WSL 2) setup.
However, upon reading the possibility to control nyxt in emacs via slime and didn't succeed with the native apt-get installations (of sbcl, nyxt, emacs), I uninstalled sbcl and nyxt and reinstalled them using guix as suggested.
Now, nyxt starts up only to a blank nyxt window titled 'sbcl', prompting me to answer:
"The name of the session to restore: "
the output of
$> nyxt --verbose
is as below:

How can I restore a normal start of the nyxt browser?
