as reported on #guix on 2024-04-01:

https://logs.guix.gnu.org/guix/2024-04-01.log#121908

the following alias (a default in ubuntu) is not quoted properly:

notify-send --urgency=3Dlow -i "$([ $? =3D 0 ] && echo terminal || echo err=
or)" "$(history|tail -n1|sed -e '\''s/^\s*[0-9]\+\s*//;s/[;&|]\s*alert$//'\=
'')"

which leads to an error when opening a new terminal after a `guix home reco=
nfigure`.
