Hi Guixers,

I would like to use guix gc.

The manual says that it is dangerous to use: "guix gc"
because it can delete too much.

So would it be a good idea to use: "guix gc -d 2m"
It would delete older than 2 month generations and also collect garbage.
Than the danger to delete something that the system needs is minimized.

Or is there still a better idea around?

Thanks for your answers

Gottfried
