>=20

I know that I can set PATH in order to load my preferred version of guix=
 instead of=20
previously installed one. what I mean is that I want to replace whole pr=
evious
installation, with this new one.=20

for example since I modified default channels for guix, there are variou=
s versions
of `channels.scm` exists on my machine, I want that guix uses my provide=
d
configurations instead of the version originally existed in store.=20
