You=E2=80=99ve probably noticed that as soon as there=E2=80=99s a non-negli= gible number of packages in a profile, there are collisions. It=E2=80=99s really harmle= ss, but seriously annoying. Here=E2=80=99s a collection of those I get: share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache lib/perl5/5.16.1/x86_64-linux/perllocal.pod Federico, I know =E2=80=98glib-or-gtk-build-system=E2=80=99 builds the firs= t 3 items on purpose, but what do you think can be done about them? At worst we could always change (guix build profiles) to not report collisions for those. The .pod files are used by =E2=80=98perldoc=E2=80=99 IIUC. What can be don= e about them? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
