Maybe we should just accentuate that guix gets its own independ= ent > profile. That I can understand ;). So it should *never* be in the user > profile. Not even by accident. When I ask guix pull version for the environment it gives me my profile..= . =20 ~/.config/guix//current/bin/guix package --search-paths export PATH=3D"/home/pjotr/.guix-profile/bin:/home/pjotr/.guix-profile/= sbin" export GUIX_LOCPATH=3D"/home/pjotr/.guix-profile/lib/locale" (...) Should it not include ~/.config/guix/current/bin to locate guix? Maybe I am confused, but if I am confused there will be more confused peo= ple ;) Pj
