Thank you

There are only 2 profiles on this machine: mine and root's profile

As for mine, I eliminated ALL previous generations and emacs-cider is not
installed in the current one

As for root's profile:

$ guix package -p root --list-installed

returns nothing


and
$ guix package -p root --list-generations
guix package: error: profile 'root' does not exist


So which profile is pointing to those things ?
