Hello,

If you run =E2=80=98guix pull=E2=80=99  as root, it updates ~root/.config/g=
uix/current.

Then, in root=E2=80=99s shell session, you need to do:

  export PATH=3D$HOME/.config/guix/current/bin:$PATH
  hash guix

at which point the =E2=80=98guix=E2=80=99 command is the latest one, which =
=E2=80=98guix
describe=E2=80=99 should confirm.

Can you check that this is the case?

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
