It seems the problem had to do with problematic migration of an IceCat
profile between versions?

If so, I'd think that'd be an upstream rather than a Guix issue.
Closing, because the issue is very old, and the lack of activity on its
tracker suggests it hasn't reoccurred since.

Feel free to reopen otherwise.

Thanks,
