Error on installed qt-4 package

[Andreas Enge]

The following transcript shows a problem I have trouble understanding; I can
build qt-4 with ./preinst-env, but not after installation (on git-1e9ed0e3):

$ rm -rf ~/.cache
$ rm -rf /usr/local/guix-git/share
$ make install
$ guix package -A qt

I made a "make clean; make install" without effect. Is there a subtle error
in my qt-4 package?

Also, I am a bit surprised by these textual references to cached files in
/root, as I am running guix as a normal user and install into a normal user-
owned directory.
