Severity: serious
Steps to reproduce:

Expected result
> boot
result
> login loop
It's very difficult to pin the issue down to a guix package being installed.
I imagine the bug would not happen if ~/.guix-profile/share was not in XDG_DATA_DIRS.

Yes, it is related to XDG_DATA_DIRS and it can be tedious to find which
package brings the issue.
I had a similar issue with the package ’python-ipython’ and recently
with ’fontconfig’ – both cases running on the top of Debian.
The issue can happen whatever the profile; it just depends which ones
are sourced by your login shell.
Cheers,
simon

Hello, I don't think XDG_DATA_DIRS should be the problems, but other
environment variables with "lib", since the xdg data should be
portable...
So:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix shell -C coreutils zbar --no-grafts -- env
PS1=\u@\h \w [env]\$
TMPDIR=/tmp
TEMPDIR=/tmp
TMP=/tmp
TEMP=/tmp
LOGNAME=iyzsong
USER=iyzsong
HOME=/home/iyzsong
PATH=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/bin:/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/sbin
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/share
GUIX_GTK3_PATH=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/lib/gtk-3.0
QMAKEPATH=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/lib/qt5
QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/lib/qt5/plugins
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/etc/xdg
XCURSOR_PATH=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/share/icons
GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
GUIX_ENVIRONMENT=/gnu/store/yfnm6nh3a6c7hiqk1nq228wpph1x1z1w-profile
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I think GUIX_GTK3_PATH, QT_PLUGIN_PATH, GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE should be
the problems.

I had the issue yesterday on Ubuntu. :-)

None of these environment variables were in my profile, IIRC. From my
small experiment, the only common one is XDG_DATA_DIRS. For instance, I
had the issue and I just removed the package ’fontconfig’ which fixed
the issue; the environment variables reads,
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix shell fontconfig --search-paths
export PATH="/gnu/store/i5rdrrdq4zi98yzcw7rza169ir1zkj6n-profile/bin${PATH:+:}$PATH"
export XDG_DATA_DIRS="/gnu/store/i5rdrrdq4zi98yzcw7rza169ir1zkj6n-profile/share${XDG_DATA_DIRS:+:}$XDG_DATA_DIRS"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The package ’zbar’ also provides XDG_DATA_DIRS. Maybe, I am missing
something.
Cheers,
simon
