I could. But then, without a working guix, how would I reinstate it ?

Anyway, I linked .config/guix/latest to a local checkked out master branch
I had

It seems to work

Ricardo made me aware that I could run "guix pull" from within any checked
out guix and that would reset the .coni/guix/latest  to point to a guix
subjected to the "guix pull" command

So it seems this is solved

I believe that these tricks related to .config/guix/latest  should be
discussed, to some extent, in the manual

It's not just a configuration matter
It's about the substantial day to day use

I will open a new thread for this

In the meantime: thank you
