"~/.config/guix/current/…" overrides "~/projects/guix" in %load-path of
Guix REPL, but the problem is that %load-compiled-path does not have the
according .go files as I wrote in the previous message, so the
incompatibility between .scm (from "~/.config/guix/current") and .go
(from "~/projects/guix") led to errors.

I have fixed it in Emacs-Guix:

  
https://notabug.org/alezost/emacs-guix/commit/38a20cefe14969970817de97693c3f0f00b1c099

BTW if you want Emacs-Guix to use Guix modules from your checkout, you
can set it like this:

  (setq guix-load-path "~/projects/guix")

This ↑ setting overrides everything (including the profile populated by
"guix pull").

Great, thank you for checking!  I have made a new release (0.4.1.1), so
hopefully it should be OK now :-)
