to open via startmenu or Alt+F2 or through the graphical way or through 
the terminal opens always the older version of icecat 91.5


Can you give us the output of
 > echo $PATH?

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ echo $PATH?
/run/setuid-programs:/home/gfp/.config/guix/current/bin:/home/gfp/.guix-profile/bin:/home/gfp/.guix-profile/sbin:/run/current-system/profile/bin:/run/current-system/profile/sbin?


If I run in root:
root@Tuxedo ~# guix package --list-installed
nothing comes up
