# guix system reconfigure --no-bootloader wsl-config.scm
/root/wsl-config.scm:39:0: error: glibc-2.31: unbound variable
hint: Did you forget a `use-modules' form?

Hi @vitaliel, I cannot reproduce the issue on a fresh install.

Current user profile, showing that no packages are installed, guix version:

Those glibc packages come from (use-service-modules base), they do exist on my setup...

I'll close the issue as it looks like you've solved your problem and I can't reproduce it...
