I tried to remove and re-install again but here what I get:

    phf@f02c:Downloads$ guix pull -l
    guix pull: error: stat: No such file or directory: "/var/guix/profiles/per-user/phf/current-guix-1-link"
    phf@f02c:Downloads$ guix describe
    guix describe: error: failed to determine origin


To uninstall:

     sudo systemctl stop guix-daemon.service
     sudo rm -rf /gnu
     sudo rm -rf /var/guix
     sudo rm -rf ~/.profile/guix
     sudo rm -rf /etc/guix


To install:

    https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/plain/etc/guix-install.sh


Well... I really don't understand how all of that works.
