Thanks for sharing!

Not directly related, but I just want to point out that you 
shouldn't ‘need’ any of it just to make Guix go.

Editing ~/.profile isn't a routine thing on a routine Guix 
installation, although for some reason some people believe 
otherwise.  I'm not sure why.  Adding magic incantations to it can 
cause hard-to-diagnose bugs, even long after the fact.  's Why it 
triggers me so; forgive me :-)

If Guix or its packages don't work without them, and you're not 
customising things like Zelphir, please pop in and tell us.  Only 
add things to ~/.profile that are somehow ‘personal’, and that you 
understand.

Kind regards,

T G-R
