Since there was no solution, I completely removed guix (in particlar, 
rm'ed the store and stuff below /var) and started again with the 0.15.0 
binary tarball.


On trying to bring everything in my manifest back, I got:
---
guix package: error: build failed: some substitutes for the outputs of 
derivation 
`/gnu/store/wzb55yvxjyymzivya50nkjcyxnmysm3r-nss-certs-3.38.drv' failed 
(usually happens due to networking issues); try `--fallback' to build 
derivation from source
---

OK, that happened last time, too, same solution:
guix package --fallback -i nss-certs.


Back to main concern: configure now (after several guix pull) fails with:
---
configure: error: Package requirements (sqlite3 >= 3.6.19) were not met:
No package 'sqlite3' found
---
