OK, here=E2=80=99s the story:

The installation image does include the development version, as you
noticed.

When you run =E2=80=98guix system init=E2=80=99 from the USB stick, that=E2=
=80=99s the
development version that=E2=80=99s used, specifically commit 20b1d19.

However, (@ (gnu packages package-management) guix) in commit 20b1d19
referred to Guix 0.6.

Thus, you end up installing Guix 0.6.

Commit 42b9b8f solves that by upgrading the development snapshot (I only
tested it on x86_64 though.)
