You need to make sure that /home/sherab/.config/guix/current/bin comes first in the list of directories in the PATH variable. > How?

You should run =E2=80=9Chash guix=E2=80=9D as the message says, and then yo= u can run =E2=80=9Ctype guix=E2=80=9D to confirm that the command =E2=80=9Cguix=E2=80= =9D resolves to the executable at =E2=80=9C/home/sherab/.config/guix/current/bin/guix=E2=80=9D. -- Ricardo PS: please keep the mailing list in Cc.
