This suggests that Guix failed to download binaries (“substitutes”) for
the GraphViz package, perhaps because of some transient networking
error.

Could you try running ‘guix pull’ again?

Thanks for your message,
Ludo’.

Hey Ludovic,

I tried guix pull another time which failed with a similar error, so I
tried with the --fallback flag and that worked. Thanks for getting back to
me.

Do you still have the output that appeared above the backtrace?  There
should be a clue as to why downloading Graphviz failed.

For the record, the two substitutes appear to be available:

Thanks,
