But thank you for your hypothesis above! I tried a different line with ls -lLR and grep and then discovered that the links *are* indeed installed in a different profile. This led me to find my problem: For some reason, my ~root/.guix-profile was pointing to the current-guix profile rather than the guix-profile. It could have been me who did that. :( Anyway, problem solved! This was not a guix bug. Best regards, Mikael
