ok

I don't know (yet) how to do that so I have tried without --pure.

This one passes now. I've upgraded guix (but don't know if it is
related):

$ guix describe

  guix 4b759d3

I tried with and without --pure, the result is the same. I also tried
without a guix environment:

$ make check TESTS="tests/pack.scm"
