This led me to find my problem: For some reason, my

than the guix-profile.
It could have been me who did that. :(
Anyway, problem solved! This was not a guix bug.
Not so fast! I just did the same yesterday using the install-script
but
on a RedHat server, and my /root/.config/guix/current pointed at
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/MYOTHERUSER/current-guix instead of
/var/guix-profiles/per-user/root/current-guix which it should be
pointing at! I also think this is related to
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2020-01/msg00241.html
I actually also think that there *is* a bug. But in my case it was
either a lack in the documentation of how to setup .guix-profile or
lack of getting this done automatically. This forced me into
guesswork.
David, for your problem, I'm wondering if it couldn't be related to
what everyone has asked me: how you become root.
That is very possible. There is a very informative deep-dive discussion
about that here: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/36785
Best regards,
Mikael
