Hello again, sorry for the delay in reply. I'll be closing this conversation and continuing this discussion on bug-guix@gnu.org, as I think that it would be an apt place to discuss.

This suggests that this file is corrupt: it shouldn’t be empty.

I’d suggest starting from a clean state:

  cd ~/Desktop/guix
  chmod -R +w test-tmp
  rm -rf test-tmp

and then:

  make check -j4

HTH!
