Situation: GuixSD sysetm managaed by user glc using a git checkout in
/home/glc/sre/guix.

Problem: When I follow the manual to set up a vanila user (glc5) with a
separate git checkout in /home/glc5/src/guix, guix-edit does not find
the checkout source.

Note: I followed comments from the #guix irc channel to set links in glc
and root that point to the glc checkout:

glc@g1 ~/src/guix [env]$ stat ~/.config/guix/latest
  File: ‘/home/glc/.config/guix/latest’ -> ‘../../src/guix’

glc@g1 ~/src/guix [env]$ stat /root/.config/guix/latest
  File: ‘/root/.config/guix/latest’ -> ‘/home/glc/src/guix’


CREATE USER glc5

glc@g1 ~/src/guix$ guix environment guix
glc@g1 ~/src/guix [env]$ ./bootstrap

## set up glc5's environment

## clone guix
glc5@g1 ~/src$ git clone t://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix.git

### run emacs
emacs

M-x guix-edit screen

Problem: This finds read-only screen.src in store rather than in ~/src/guix/...
