Yes, that looks fine.

There are two TLS errors (here, for GitHub, and below, for NIST). I'm
not sure but I'd guess that the linter is unable to find your
certificate store, or it lacks the GnuTLS client. How about if you try
invoking the linter in an environment where you have all of Guix's
dependencies available? Like this:

$ guix environment guix --pure -- ./pre-inst-env guilx lint 
ruby-net-http-digest-auth

This will need to be corrected as well.
