TBH I don't understand all the problems related to multiple-profiles
that were discussed and "solved" recently.  I have been using multiple
profiles for at least 5 years (I don't even have ~/.guix-profile on my
disk) and I have not had any serious problems, just some small obstacles
that can be easily overpassed.

Anyway, what I have written is not related to the bug, sorry for the
noise :-)
