You want to use the staging branch of Guix, as it already includes a
debug output for qtbase and related packages (which inherits from its
definition).
Possibly what was missing from your experiment was the
"--force-debug-info" configure option that prevents the Qt build system
from stripping the debug symbols (the otherwise default behavior). You
can inspect commit ab6fe9d3620 to see how it was done.
Hope that helps,
Maxim
