Thanks fo your help,  

my package needs to install some `.scm` scripts beside  original package files. 
I just install them in wrong path, then I couldn't to import them inside guile
interpreter. 

after fixing the scheme files installation paths to `share/guile/site/2.2/` 
symlinks
built successfully in `~/.guix-profile/share/guile/site/2.2./`.
