This cache contains references to store items. Since the registry is not under the control of Guix it may go stale, causing Gstreamer to use old (and potentially vulnerable) plugins. A user may delete the registry as it will be recreated automatically. We should aim to build the registry in a profile hook. According to the gst-launch man page, the GST_REGISTRY environment variable can be used to override the defautl location of the registry file. When the GST_REGISTRY_UPDATE variable is set to =E2=80=9Cno=E2=80=9D, Gstreamer won= =E2=80=99t attempt to update the registry. -- Ricardo PS: IBus has the same problem. See bug 22707.
