Hi Guix,
Today after a guix pull to commit
e3545ffcf95bffbbd967efd852715f4f0a9be290, guix system reconfigure fails to
install grub (bios grub on x86_64) with

Unfortunately, I don't remember the last commit for which I successfully
reconfigured and installed gurb. My operating system definition is below.

Fixed in 8ffab257ddb6c5df1ac43b9baeb5f0373bffb482.
As you found out, ‘grub-install’ was actually successful but there was
an unbound variable error while displaying the success message…
Thanks,
Ludo’.
