It turns out that the gmnisrv package was misconfigured so that it was
necessary to have /etc/mime.types present. I've submitted a patch at
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49705
to fix that (as well as not looking for /etc/gmnisrv.conf if present) if
you would like to test it before it makes it into master.
