Hi,

thanks for help

no problem, I make constantly mistakes...

I have e.g. in the directory /home/gfp/Projekte/Emacs/
the directories:
1. emacs (8 elements: bin, etc, include, lib, libexec, sbin, share, 
  manifest),
2. emacs-1-link (8 elements),
3. guix-profil (8 elements: bin, etc, include, lib, libexec, sbin share, 
manifest),
4. guix-profil-2-link (8 elements),
5. guix-profil-3-link (8 elements)
and 6. emacs.scm

Do you mean the directories "emacs" and "guix-profil" because they have 
the same subdirectories/8 elements
are now created, like double
and I have to remove the directory "emacs",
because the directory "guix-profil" should stay?

All the different profiles (I put them in the directory "Projekte
(engl. projects)

have now always like the example above "emacs"
subdirectories: like their "different package names" and also "guix-profil".

I understood you, that now the subdirectories (with the names of the 
profiles) are now according to the update script additionally created.

and I should delete those directories with the name of the profile

I hope I could express myself clearly.

Kind regards

Gottfried
