I reconfigured my Guix system on commit 0d455d9 (Nov 22), and since then I can't
login into EXWM from GDM. I get
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
split-string: wrong type argument: stringp nil
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
if I recall correctly.

This looks like a symptom of EMACSLOADPATH not being set in the profile
used by EXWM (your system profile, maybe?). Perhaps installing Emacs
alongside EXWM (in the same profile) would resolve your issue?
HTH,
Maxim

I'll test.
If this is the case, how can we fix this properly?
May add `emacs' to the propagated inputs of exwm?

I've tested again after Clément pushed your fix, and the problem seems
to be gone with the following steps.
- guix system reconfigure ...
- guix package -m manifest-including-emacs-and-exwm (not sure exwm
matters here)
- Log in.
Closing this then.
