You most probably do have a working Guix in the store but your current guix points to the new one which lacks guile-gcrypt. I suggest you roll back your guix pull profile following the manual. (this might not work if your guix is too old) https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-pull.html#Invoking-guix-pull If you want more help I suggest you run: $ guile --version | head -1 && guix --version | head -1 And your env $ env Also guix package -l && guix pull -l ls -l ~/.guix-profile ~/.config/guix/ -- Cheers Swedebugia
