I just did the following:
  guix package -d
  guix gc
to have only the current profile and its packages on my disk.
Then I wanted to delete one package:
  guix package -r texlive

This resulted in the following output:
The following package will be removed:
   texlive      2013    /gnu/store/in5hhsj3335k1mkdq15y855mya430c6v-texlive-2013

The following derivations will be built:
   /gnu/store/js1h46v2cmw94s22875jp1ijzagp99dw-profile.drv
   /gnu/store/b4dp41cyfrfhamjfslj3n0x1lsnqqnl9-info-dir.drv

Is this normal? Should removing packages not be possible without an internet
connection? Does "guix gc" need to be modified to keep essential packages
registered?

Yes it is!  :-)

The derivation that builds the profile uses Guile, like almost all the
derivations.  And since we just merged the bash-cve-2014-6271 branch, it
depends on the new Guile build, which isn’t yet in your store.  Hence
the long download list.

Very well then, thanks for the explanation!
