Unable to reconfigure guix system (wrong type to apply)

Hi,

I'm using Guix system. I guix pull yesterday. This is my new guix:

★★★★★★★★★★
Generation 61	Aug 29 2022 18:41:13	(current)
  guix 9b8507d
    repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    branch: master
    commit: 9b8507df11f5ca3d13e49dc0588d3522d28fa9e4
★★★★★★★★★★


I have a ~/.config/guix/channels.scm with the following lines for a long time:

★★★★★★★★★★
(use-modules (guix ci))

(list
 ;; Saves my machine compiling package definitions when running
 ;; "guix pull", because it uses the latest commit with available
 ;; package definition substitutes in ci.guix.gnu.org.
 ;;
 ;; https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/guix.html#Channels-with-Substitutes

 (channel-with-substitutes-available
  %default-guix-channel
  "https://ci.guix.gnu.org"))
★★★★★★★★★★


But now I'm getting the following error when I try to reconfigure the system:

★★★★★★★★★★
sudo guix system reconfigure my-system.scm 


Backtrace:

Is this a problem in Guix's channel definition?

This looks like the problem described in
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/57480 in which the regression was
identified and reverted.  Try 'guix pull' again and see if your system
reconfigure works this time.

Hope this helps,
