Starting the new Icecat with “icecat --migration” and telling it to
import the existing Icecat profile did the trick for me. I did not
delete anything from my existing profile.
It would certainly be nice if Icecat didn’t segfault when loading data
that it can in principle migrate, but that’s not actually a Guix bug I
think.
