Hi Joshua,

> ;tldr guix system reconfigure does not create a ~/.guix-profile

This is not a bug.

=E2=80=9Cguix system reconfigure=E2=80=9D will never create .guix-profile. =
 That=E2=80=99s not
what it=E2=80=99s supposed to do.

~/.guix-profile is created when a profile is generated and installed,
i.e. when a user installs their first package.
