I'm trying to delete the things that guix gc cannot repair, but I get an error that they are still alive:

```
christopher@nightshade ~/Repos/guix-working$ sudo guix gc -D /gnu/store/48bcdy815zcp007v0jpjrw9wnbs1cinh-guix-c19d29c
finding garbage collector roots...

Try `guix --help' for more information.

```

Is there some way to see what is keeping them alive?
