Hi,

I'm using guix (GNU Guix) 20170802.00 on Debian 9, but can't update it 
because "guix pull" fails.


Steps to reproduce
--------------------------

 1. Open a terminal as root.
 2. Run "guix pull"


Expected result
---------------------

Guix pulls everything it needs to pull.


Unexpected result
------------------------

Guix fails to pull with the following error:

'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'...
