Also I see people with Fedora use Guix, because there are several
repositories [1] with RPM packages to install Guix in Fedora.  So I
really recommend to chat or mail with Fedora community.

Well, you could come back at any time.  Always welcome!

Sorry, I don't see a problem because of environment variables in the
current case.  What I see is an issue with a foreign distro itself.
Particularly a program called PackageKit-command-not-found [2] which you
could remove with `sudo dnf remove PackageKit-command-not-found`.

It maybe be helpful.  Thank you!
