Did you have any corruption at the FS level or something equally bad?
Were you using a different Guix in between the 'guix package -m'
attempts?  If the profile was in the cache, it wouldn't rebuild it,
and you'd be stuck with your broken version.

I'm closing this, as I we don't have much to push the
investigation further, but if you have a more precise idea of what
happened and ways to reproduce that do reopen.
