I did this but it still didn't work and asked me to compile
however I did what Mark Weaver suggested, I changed my TMPDIR
environment variable and I was able to compile without problems \o/ now
my guix is up to date

this is my guix describe


 $ guix describe
guile: warning: failed to install locale
hint: Consider installing the `glibc-utf8-locales' or `glibc-locales' package and defining `GUIX_LOCPATH', along these
lines:

     guix package -i glibc-utf8-locales
     export GUIX_LOCPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale"

See the "Application Setup" section in the manual, for more info.
