Guix will not overwrite any system files. It only writes to /gnu,
/var/guix, and /etc/guix.
It did when I first tried install-from-source a few months ago, and it
took me a while to clean up the mess. More precisely, it put a lot of
stuff into /usr/local, overwriting files in /usr/local/share that
Ubuntu-installed software depended on. If that has changed in the
meantime, that's great.
No, the configure script is probably okay. Maybe something’s up with
your environment. Have you tried “guix environment --pure guix”?
I just did. No difference. Same config.log, same Makefile, same error
messages.
