Alternately, try ‘guix package -i adwaita-icon-theme’ or add
gnome-icon-theme and/or adwaita-icon-theme to the ‘packages’ field of
your ‘operating-system’ configuration, along these lines:

  (use-package-modules gnome xfce) ;etc.

  (operating-system
    ;; ...
    (packages (cons* gnome-icons-theme adwaita-icon-theme xfce
                     ;; whatever else...
                     %base-packages)))

Could you report back?

TIA,
Ludo’.
