‘guix shell -CW’ dismisses extra channels available in the original
Guix, as illustrated by this example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix time-machine -C <(echo '(cons (channel (name (quote guix-hpc)) (url
"https://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/guix-hpc.git")) %default-channels)') -- shell
-CW coreutils -- guix describe

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This is due to the fact that ‘-W’ (‘--nesting’) is implemented by adding
the outer ‘guix’ to the container’s profile, without also adding its
companion profile entries (those that provide channels).
