But I suppose that in between, you also did a "git pull; make install" or
"guix pull"? Then it is clear that if you have a different version of guix
installed, it references different packages.

This is not very different from installing different versions of other
distributions, except that with our public git repository, we enable rolling
releases with frequent changes.
