I had not checked before, the latest version in Guix is 29.4, while Parabola
has 30.1-5. For software available both in Guix and in Parabola, I have seen
such a situation several times: Guix has much more recent version than
Trisquel, but not as recent as Parabola.

What does "guix describe" say? For me, it is 

Generation 1	May 17 2025 16:57:07	(current)
  guix 9f3d8db
    repository URL: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix-mirror
    branch: master
    commit: 9f3d8dbda60bb1dd15d2956c334354947df8b3f5

So I have relatively recent version (17 May 2025).

If doing your development work in a virtual machine is feasible, you could
create a virutal machine with Parabola. I don't do any development, but on
my laptop (with i5-1240P), it is feasible to put the display of a virtual
machine full screen and use it as the main computer for all my tasks.
