Tldr: Loading the modules in $HOME/.config/guix/current in a guile repl breaks building packages when there are overlapping directories between your configured guix channels. Thanks! I finally figured it out. This has to do with overlapping directory trees in guix channels. If you have a channel which has either an overlapping `gnu/packages/...' (my channel) or for example the guix home manager channel (with `guix/scripts/...'), you run into these obscure issues. As I can simply use my own prefixed directory structure for my own channel, and AFAICS there has already been gwl related discussions on how to package guix extensions such as home manager, this issue is easily prevented. The reason why I ran into this problem is that that building/installing/doing anything cool with emacs-guix consistently triggered this bug for me, as they used a repl in the background with the appropriate load-path set up. Should we consider this behavior a bug in guix, or simply a caveat that we should document in the manual section on channels? - Jelle, who is extremely psyched about finally finding the cause of an issue that has been bothering me for 4 years :D
