In addition, you could use “guix gc -F 10G” or whatever space you would
like to reclaim.  Because “guix gc” delete all dead items whereas the
option ’-F’ (or ’-C’) tries to determine which items based on dates (I
guess).


Sometimes, I also do:

    for item in $(guix gc --list-dead | grep <filter>)
    do
       guix gc -D $item
    done

and you can pipe instead of for-looping. :-)


Hope that helps,
simon
