Hi!

In the past I learned, that when updating the guix system, I have to use:

~~~~
sudo -i
~~~~

And then run the guix commands. Otherwise guix still has/sees environment 
variables from my user shell/profile/environment and that can mess up Guix. So I 
want to share that bit of info with you. Hope it helps, even if not directly 
related to your question.

Best wishes,
Zelphir
