Sorry for the late reply. Well, I am not seeing any reply, so in case… :-)

Hum, this seems some environment variables incorrectly set. Maybe try
with a clean shell, for instance run:
env -i $(which bash) --login --noprofile --norc
which guix
guix describe
source ~/.config/guix/current/etc/profile
which guix
guix describe
Do you still have the error?
Cheers,
simon
