What does "when Guix tries to set up its own ~/.zprofile" exactly mean?
When should that happen? I tried reconfiguring my system to use zsh and
I deleted my ~/.zprofile prior to that, but after the reconfiguration
there was no new ~/.zprofile created in my home dir.

Currently I append /run/setuid-programs manually to my PATH to get
around this issue.
