I do not think it is a bug from Guix but a bug from OneTuple upstream,
not in their version 0.2.2.1, and introduce by their version 0.3.1.
We could introduce a detection for cycles. But nothing is broken or
raise a Backtrace. Somehow, the importers are some helper and not
bullet-proof one-to-one mapping, IMHO.
I propose to close this bug if no more idea. WDYT?
Cheers,
