Two linux users, each has different packages available

Two linux users, each has different packages available

[Richmond]

I have two different linux users on my system. (Debian 11 x86). One has
icecat 102 installed, the other icecat 78. I cannot upgrade the user
with 78. The 102 version doesn't seem to be available.

On the first user:

guix package -A icecat
icecat    78.4.0-guix0-preview1    out    gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm:725:2

On the other user:

guix package -A icecat
icecat            102.14.0-guix0-preview1    out                    
gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm:1708:4
icecat-l10n       102.14.0-guix0-preview1

icecat-minimal    102.14.0-guix0-preview1    out                    
gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm:694:2

How did this come about? I think I have possibly created an environment
by accident. But I don't know how to show it or remove it.

Hi Richmond,

Did the first user 'guix pull' recently?  That is also per-user.

Kind regards,

Hi Tobias, thanks for your reply.

I found the cause in the end, it was because I had a line in my bashrc
which updated the $PATH but did not have the obligatory :$PATH at the
end of it, so it was overwriting the changes made in
/etc/profile.d/guix.sh , I don't know how long that line has been there
but it caused all sorts of problems and confusion. >>lessons_learned
