I hit this while running in a low-CPU Virtualbox setup doing some
Packer work on https://github.com/palfrey/guix-vm. I upped the CPU
specs and got another error

How much memory (RAM) do you have available on the machine?

Guix pull consumes close to 2 GiB peak, if I recall correctly.

That was with 4GB. Tried upping to 8GB and now getting a different
error. My channels.scm is

That should be more than enough for 'guix pull'.

It looks like you have inverted the introduction and Guix commit?
989a3916dc8967bcb7275f10452f89bc6c3389cc corresponds to v1.4.0.
