Thanks for the report.  Note that the 1.3.0 image is getting a bit old
(+1 year old).  We should cut a release sometime soon but in the
meantime you can try a development snapshot from the build server such
as this one [0] (by visiting to https://ci.guix.gnu.org/, then clicking
on "images", then on the last build ID on top, then on the 'display/PC
monitor' shaped icon, then on the circle corresponding to the desired
image type/architecture).

Your feedback on a development image would be welcome and help to adjust
before the release.
