Here’s a confusing error:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix package -p $HOME/.guix-profile/ -l

This works fine, though:

$ guix package -p $HOME/.guix-profile -l

The only difference is the trailing slash of the argument to “-p”.  Guix
should handle this case gracefully, e.g. by stripping the trailing
slash.
