I had the same issue in my local checkout, but it was because of another
change I committed that was then reverted: it changed the <user-account>
ABI, and so a lot more files had to get recompiled.  You can try to
manually run `guix home --help` and see what the error is, if it's an
ABI error I usually run `grep -Rl "<user-account>" --include '*.go' . |
xargs rm`.

Best,
