Oh yes,

  guix package -i le-certs

  The following package will be installed:
     le-certs     0       /gnu/store/35bj4v3skwwdmydsndz1hj14d7p95qcb-le-certs-0

  guix package: error: build failed: opening file `/gnu/store/cm5gjbfkps9g18z6a49shk55ai9101nk-le-certs-0.drv': No such file or directory

A bit circular.
