When I invoke `guix repl`, I get:

despite `guix show guix` shows a dependency of `guile@2.2.6`

This is incorrect, is it?

That’s perfectly correct: the ‘guix repl’ command comes from the ‘guix’
that you obtained via ‘guix pull’, and which just switched to Guile 3.0
(‘guix pull --news’ should contain an entry about it, but see also

Conversely, the ‘guix’ package is still using Guile 2.2, as you saw with
“guix show guix”. It will switch to 3.0 soonish.

The transition should be mostly complete within a few days so the
situation should be clearer.

HTH!
