Afternoon Edouard,

So Guix isn't trying to build any packages (yet), just complaining 
that you're still using python2-prompt-toolkit-1 somewhere.  I'm 
inclined to believe it:

Does ‘find -name \*.scm -exec grep python2-prompt-toolkit-1 {} +’ 
in your channel's directory return anything useful?

Are there any uncommitted changes to your channel(s) that ‘guix 
pull’ can't see yet?

It's a simple cache of package metadata from your channel(s) to 
speed up future Guix operations.  I doubt it's related to your 
problem; it's just what happened to fail first.

Kind regards,
