OK, that commit is dated Wed May 22 00:00:06 2019 so your guix-daemon
does not support lzip compressed substitutes /and/ gzip support has been
removed on 2022/03/01

This does not work because now substitutes are only available in lzip
while your currently running daemon il "gzip only"
[...]

If you are on Debian 11 or above you can install the guix deb package
(and eventually upgrade guix-daemon with "sudo -i guix pull", but beware
of the path used in guix-daemon.service in /etc/systemd/system/)

Sorry I cannot help on repairing this situation
