I have tested everything that has been suggested, but nothing really
worked. When I try apply transform on gnome
(options->transformation
'((with-debug-info . "gnome-console")))
it does not allow me to do so. (Apparently there is a version conflict.

I know that this issue is not present on
guix shell --pure nautilus gnome-console

And is also fixed with
guix shell --with-debug-info=gnome-console nautilus gnome-console

But I cannot upgrade gnome-console, or at least when I tried rollbacking
to a previous version (about a month ago) then deleting all generations,
running guix gc. But the issue is back when I ran guix system
reconfigure.

I have now verified, that it is indeed not a binary corruption issue. As both
in normal and in the pure environment the libkgx-nautilus.so are the
same file.

The fact that it does not occur when using the
--with-debug-info=gnome-console option is kind of a bummer, as I cannot
use gdb to debug gnome-console :D
