Hi Joshua,

> ;tldr guix system reconfigure does not create a ~/.guix-profile

This is not a bug.

“guix system reconfigure” will never create .guix-profile.  That’s not
what it’s supposed to do.

~/.guix-profile is created when a profile is generated and installed,
i.e. when a user installs their first package.
