While this would be convenient and probably an improvement I’d like to mention that in the HPC use case this might be problematic as profiles might be located on file shares that are not accessible by the node running the daemon. It would be good if the GC would err on the side of caution in those cases. (It currently removes links to unreachable profiles.) -- Ricardo
