I ran the script, following the instructions in the manual, on a fresh
Debian system. I had no problems.

I also ran the script, not following the instructions exactly, but
instead doing `sudo ./guix-install.sh`, and it still worked fine. I
thought that maybe there were some 'sudo' vs 'sudo --login' shenanigans,
but nothing went wrong.

Can anybody reproduce this bug?
