You should not have to.  I assume ~/guix-packages is a set of custom
modules.  GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH affects all of Guix.  But it won’t be
available when you use “sudo” unless you tell “sudo” to keep the
currently set environment (e.g. with “sudo -E”).

“guix system reconfigure” must run with root permissions.
