This is very odd.  Can you paste the output of:

cat /gnu/store/dp8ywhh22n8ixikqdvsb6w6qbn4iw899-environment.drv ?

Does it make any difference if you drop --image-size (which is now
autodetected) and/or --share?

Do you get the same error if you don't use "./pre-inst-env"?

What does 'git describe' output in your repository?

system vm fails (reprise)

[Catonano]

Ok, so in running

sudo -E guix ...

I had messed up my installation, so guix pull didn't work anymore

I think I fixed it now

guix pull ust worked, I reconfigured my system

but this still happens
