Re: Additional channels pulled, but cannot install/update software

[Simen Endsjø]

I'm not sure how to interpret the output, so I'm pasting everything here. I
notice that I have two guix profiles in my path, not sure if that's a
problem.
I've stripped what I expect is uninteresting from the PATH, but the full
output
is at the bottom.
