OK, thanks for explaining.  Could you please try
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/60442 (by applying the patch to a local guix
checkout, building it, then 'sudo -E ./pre-inst-env sudo guix system
reconfigure /path/to/your/config.scm)?  The test suite was broken it
seems (it passed without the fix), but perhaps the fix still does work?
