I tried to install guix on top of Ubuntu, downloaded guix 0.3 and
installed the required dependecies.
I tried to first run guix pull but failed with an error on /nix/store
with wrong rights, the error provided a command to run which I did.
After that I run again guix pull and try to install zile with the
command guix package -i zile
It fails with the following error:
http://paste.call-cc.org/paste?id=6fdc9664ba6f81cfc0e32d168502945e1d6c95f9
I can't install guile 2.0.9 on ubuntu because of some file clash regarding ffi.
Instead I looked in /nix/store and saw that guile 2.0.9 was installed by guix
so I symlinked it in ~/.guix-profile/bin/
replaced the shebang of /usr/local/bin/guix with /usr/bin/env guile
Running guix package -i zile still fails with the following error:

What version of Guile did you use?

Could you specify all commands that you used (after you had fetched the
tarball)? So I could try to reproduce the problem.

Please attach logs in the future. We shouldn't rely on third party
services.

Please send a message to bug-guile@gnu.org if you can't find anything
here [1].

I think that the above might cause some problems. Normally, you don't
have to touch the store (i.e., '/nix/store') at all. Could you specify
the absolute location of that Guile 2.0.9 directory?

Could you also try to install Guix from Git [2] and report any problems?
Finally, I hope that you'll switch to a free distro [3] instead of
Ubuntu that contains non-free [4] packages.

I switched to Debian, So I can (re)produce the steps from above.

Don’t ever do that: this directory is managed via the ‘guix package’
command exclusively.

This one is:

> ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link: file: "libgcrypt", message: "file not found"
I believe your distro comes with Guile 2.0.5, right?
It’s OK to build Guix 0.3 with this Guile version, and it should work.
What’s not OK is to build it with that version, and then silently switch
to 2.0.9, or vice-versa (for instance because nar.scm checks at
compile-time if the ‘sendfile’ procedure is available, and 2.0.9 has it
whereas 2.0.5 doesn’t.)
So, what I would recommend is to start afresh with Guile 2.0.5:
configure, build, and install Guix (and run ‘make check’.)
From there, you can run ‘guix package -i guile’ to install 2.0.9 in your
profile. And then, you can re-build Guix with 2.0.9, and run ‘guix pull’.
Can you try that and report back?
HTH,
Ludo’.

Sorry, I can't, I moved to debian sid and everything seems to work as
expected. I hope it will be useful for some else.
