You need to make sure that ‘guix-daemon’ launches the right ‘guix
substitute’.

A simple way to do that from your Git checkout is:

  sudo ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon --build-users-group=guixbuild \
         --substitute-urls=https://mirror.guixsd.org

Make sure to stop any running guix-daemon before; on GuixSD, this goes
like this:

  sudo herd stop guix-daemon

HTH!
