How do I set GUIX_GITHUB_TOKEN correctly?

How do I set GUIX_GITHUB_TOKEN correctly?

Hi,

I've been packaging software hosted on GitHub without problems for some days, but recently, running "guix lint -L . python-commonmark" (a package I'm defining on https://gitlab.com/sirgazil/guix-channel-x/-/blob/master/sirgazil-x/packages/python.scm#L67) failed and a message suggested to create a GitHub token. I created a token with all the "Repo" scopes selected, exported the GUIX_GITHUB_TOKEN variable, but now I'm getting the following error:

🙠🙢 🙠🙢 🙠🙢 🙠🙢  🙠🙢  🙠🙢  🙠🙢  🙠🙢  🙠🙢  🙠🙢  🙠🙢

Then, I created another token with all scopes selected, 

$ export GUIX_GITHUB_TOKEN="new token"
$ guix lint -L . python-commonmark

and got the same error message.

I don't know what I'm missing...
