This indicates to me that you are building the entire distro from source. You probably don't want this, so you should run 'guix pull' before installing to get the latest version of Guix. Due to limited disk space, we can only retain pre-built binaries for a short period of time, and the binaries for 0.9.0 have been garbage collected by now. Hope this helps. - Dave
