Aah… yes! Thanks.
Well, I have various profiles, for instance, coreutils is in one profile
and info-reader is in another. That’s why it appears to me unexpected.

That’s man-db. :-)
Well I am closing as ’notabug’; although when using Guix as environment
manager on foreign distro in some scientific context, it means that I
have to pass info-reader and man-db to all my profiles around when
working on some specific project.
Cheers,
