Problem building disk-image with guix from git

[Fredrik Salomonsson]

Hi guix,

See if I can send this to the right mailing list this time...

I thought I would test out the patch from https://issues.guix.info/43366
on my laptop. I cloned the guix repo (checksum: d48b17a), applied the
patch from 43366. Then followed the steps in the manual:
```
$ guix environment guix
$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure --localstatedir=/var
$ make
```

Then launched the daemon in one shell:
```
$ sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon --build-users-group=guixbuild
```

And tried to build the disk image in another
```
$ ./pre-inst-env guix system disk-image --file-system-type=iso9660 
gnu/system/install.scm
```

But getting this error:
```

```

I tried running the guix system command in a guix enviroment:
```
$ guix environment guix --ad-hoc guile guild-gcrypt
```

Same error.

This is what changed when I applied the patch:
```

Anyone have any pointers what I might have done wrong?

Thanks
