issue with openldap managed users on HPC

hello, I installed guix in a HPC environment and everything works as expected if I use guix as a local user. I got this issue when I try to run it as an openldap/sssd-managed user.

example:

[

root@frontend ~]# id konrad

uid=10000(konrad) gid=10000(hpc-users) groups=10000(hpc-users)

[root@frontend ~]# getent passwd -s sss

konrad:*:10000:10000:Davide Corrado:/home/konrad:/bin/bash

[root@frontend ~]# su - konrad

[konrad@frontend ~]$ id

uid=10000(konrad) gid=10000(hpc-users) groups=10000(hpc-users)

[konrad@frontend ~]$ guix install hello

user with UID 10000 not found

guix install: error: while creating directory `/var/guix/profiles/per-user/konrad': Permission denied

hint: Please create the `/var/guix/profiles/per-user/konrad' directory, with you as the owner.

I could create the missing /var/guix/profiles/per-user/konrad directory with the proper uid and gid and everything works as expected, but creating a procedure for managing this issue do not look like a clean solution to me. Am I missing something? Am I the only one using guix with such an environment?
