It says to me that : 'guix upgrade' is expected to do nothing in this case: it only upgrades the packages you have installed as the root user (which are none). To upgrade the system, use 'guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm'. > "guix upgrade: warning: Consider running `guix pull` followed by > 'guix package -u' to get up-to-date packages and security updates" Reading guix/scripts.scm, I think this is happening because you have no packages in the [user] profile. https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/guix/scripts.scm?id=1d24cc6de674ff8cd6321eb373ab86c8028e2281#n158 Removing the (not age) check on line 176 might fix this.
