It just doesn't work

### Steps to reproduce:
0. Get GNU Guix
1. Install gnunet using `$ guix install gnunet`
2. Read documentation and figure out that you need to do this configuration

    $ cat ~/.config/gnunet.conf 
    [dns2gns]
    OPTIONS = -d 1.1.1.1 -p 5252
    
    [arm]
    START_SYSTEM_SERVICES = NO
    START_USER_SERVICES = YES
    
    #[gns]
    #PORT = 2102
    
    #[gns-proxy]
    
    #[PATHS]

3. Start gnunet using `$ gnunet-arm -c ~/.config/gnunet.conf -s`

4. Try to do `$ chromium --proxy-server=socks5://127.0.0.1:7777 test.gnu` without success that gets you:
    gnunet-gns-proxy-1365 ERROR Download curl test.gnu/ failed: Couldn't resolve host name Refused wrong status code (0). HTTP requires three digits status code! Application reported internal error, closing connection

5. Sink 18 hours in it reading the source code, reading the configuration that is shipped with gnunet to try to adjust yours, try to debug invidual services without success, ask other people who demoralize you by telling you that they also weren't able to make gnunet to lose all hope and write on the mailing list hoping for miracle.

### Expected behavior:

Run GNUNet in chromium to resolve http://test.gnu and other gnunet websites while being able to use dns2gns for clearweb through SOCKS5 proxy to be able to define a reproducible configuration for deployment on guix.

### Actual behavior:

Torture of the user

### Additional Informations:
a. All services that it gives me are running and doesn't seem to report any issues (gns-proxy, dns2gns and messenger had to be manually started using $ gnuner-arm -i SERVICE)

    $ gnunet-arm -I -a
    All services:
    (started: 9)
    gns-proxy (binary='gnunet-gns-proxy', status=started)
    dns2gns (binary='gnunet-dns2gns', status=started)
    identity (binary='gnunet-service-identity', status=started)
    messenger (binary='gnunet-service-messenger', status=started)
    namestore (binary='gnunet-service-namestore', status=started)
    reclaim (binary='gnunet-service-reclaim', status=started)
    rest (binary='gnunet-rest-server', status=started)
    zonemaster (binary='gnunet-service-zonemaster', status=started)
    zonemaster-monitor (binary='gnunet-service-zonemaster-monitor', status=started)

b. I don't have public IP configured
