I can't find a full explanation anywhere. So far I have figured out the following: - original profile directories are named like: /gnu/store/-profile - /var/guix/profiles/per-user// contains symlinks to the profiles associated with user - symlinks in /var/guix/profiles/per-user// seem to take one of the following forms: current-guix current-guix--link guix-profile guix-profile--link - the profile used by "guix package" for user is symlinked from: ~/.guix-profile -> /var/guix/profiles/per-user//guix-profile - symlinks to previous generations of that profile are stored as: /var/guix/profiles/per-user//guix-profile--link where is the generation number - the profile used by "guix pull" for user is symlinked from: ~/.config/guix/current -> /var/guix/profiles/per-user/
