Hmmm. You are right. ~/.guix-profile, meanwile, does point inside
/var/guix.
I have wondered before how GC works on profiles not in /var/guix.
Where does it store that state? In the database? I mean, if I simply
remove the symlink
lrwxrwxrwx 1 wrk 502 51 Feb 19 09:38 guix-build-system-1-link -> /gnu/store/0lyv2p35ziymd6xjrfxy8sp502n2ii5d-profile
how does Guix know it can GC /gnu/store/0lyv2p35ziymd6xjrfxy8sp502n2ii5d-profile?
