Hi, this error happened here, too, also on a foreign distro, without any
extra steps.

guix pull: error: symlink: File exists:

At the same time, a `sudo guix pull` works fine.

Thanks for this finding.

Sorry, I thought this fixed it for me too, but now every time I run an installed package, I get that guix is 18 days old,  asks me to guix pull, and if I run even the hello package, i get that it is not installed and claims to install it with, in my case, apt.
