Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2019 14:58:10 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
`man` fails to find man pages from non-default profiles.
Indeed, MANPATH is set in /etc/profile to

export MANPATH=\
$HOME/.guix-profile/share/man\
:/run/current-system/profile/share/man

I believe that each profile should set MANPATH in their own etc/profile.

Thoughts?
